....pero cuando le pega el feo.

Question

La verda es que no tengo mi proprio carro y se me hace dificil viajar hasta Breck. Mi hermana me da raites pero cuando le pega el feo. Esquia el Lunes?

Could somebody help me with the translation for, "....pero cuando le pega el feo?" Thanks in advance.

raites no es una palabra en español. Sin embargo, a veces en lenguaje informal decimos "ride". "Dame ride" = "Bring me" - -cae-, Mar 18, 2012

Answer 1

"pero cuando le pega el feo"

I think it equates to the English idiom, "to put the heat on." For example, She only would give me a ride if I turned up the heat(on her) To pressure, coerce, pursuade etc.

Answer 2

I believe this is referenced usually to the english P.M.S (although the context suggests otherwise) - Dont quote me though.

Answer 3

I think "pero cuando le pega el feo" is slang, meaning rarely. I've never heard such expression.

Answer 4

Hmmm....Never heard that expression before.

I'd guess "when she gets in a bad mood" but why would she give you a ride only when she's in a bad mood?

Answer 5
