"Somos muchos mas exagerados"

Question

I am looking for a meaning of the expression "somos muchos más exagerados"

It may be a local Andalucian expression but so far I've drawn a complete blank searching thrrough normal channels.

Thanks.

Should that be mucho...adverb....much more....is muchos a pronoun there...many? - 0074b507, Sep 14, 2011

Answer 1

I should see the this sentence in its context, because as it is there's a grammar mistake, it should be 'somos mucho mas exagerados'

The translation for this; 'we are a lot more over-the-top' Then again I should see where it comes from to understand on what they are more 'prone to exaggeration' (its literal translation)

Hope it helps

No context unfortunately, we were just given the words to try and find a meaning. Thanks. - caza, Sep 14, 2011

Hi, caza!

At first sight, I think your sentence should read:

"somos mucho más exagerados" = we are much more exaggerated

...which seems to be incomplete. More exaggerated than... what?

I don't believe this is a local Andalusian expression, but I miss some context. I could think of something like:

Los catalanes son tozudos, pero nosotros somos mucho más exagerados.

I copied it from the classroom board and the task was to find the meaning which is why I thought it may be an expression. Thanks for your help - caza, Sep 14, 2011
