¿Cómo se dice ¨snob¨ o ¨snoot¨ en español?

Question

Mi diccionario me dice que las palabras españolas por "snob" y "snobiness" son "esnob" y "esnobismo." Por ejemplo, me parace que hay mucho esnobismo alredador de aquí.

My dictionary tells me that the spansih words for "snob" and "snobiness" are "esnob" and "esnobismo." For example, it seems to me that there's a lot of snobiness around here.

Please correct my intermediate Spanish and tell me if there are any other synonyms for "snob" or "snobiness" in Spanish. Es una de mis palabras favoritas. Gracias, SanMateo.

Answer 1

I had an Argentinian teacher who translated a snob as "una fresa" which literally means a strawberry.

Just have to link these videos so you can see what a "fresa" is... jeje.

Naco y Fresa The guy on the right is the fresa.

Huevocartoon - Fresas

Answer 3

I had an Argentinian teacher who translated a snob as "una fresa" which literally means a strawberry. I think this is weird because Argentinians use "una frutilla" for strawberry, but I thought I'd pass it along anyway.

I know "fresa" is used in Mexico... Fresas are a bit like the "valley girls" in the US: - NikkiLR, Mar 3, 2012
