Es más feo/a que el Fary comiendo un limón

Question

Hello guys!

I'd like to know some expressions like this:

Ser más feo/a que Picio = To be as ugly as sin

Other similar Spanish expressions are:

• Es más feo/a que pegarle a un padre.

• Es más feo/a que un rayo.

• Es más feo/a que el Fary comiendo un limón.

• Es más feo/a que cobrar las bolsas de un supermercado.

Do you know any expression with "glad" in English?

Answer 1

Do you know any expression with "glad" in English?

That's a hard one because you can't say....

He's gladder than....

He's more glad than....

You could say....

He's as glad as.....

But I can't think of any expressions with "glad."

How about "happy"....He's as happy as a clam!

I can't think of any with 'gald' in either, it's not a very usual word, nowadays. - annierats, Jun 4, 2012

Glad, I mean. Typo, as usual. - annierats, Jun 4, 2012

Happy as Larry, happy as a sambo ( nowadays not acceptable) .. - annierats, Jun 4, 2012

Well, I'm surprised!!!.... In Spanish this kind of sentences are very common.... Es más feo que , es más alto que, es más gordo que, ... - josemaloru, Jun 4, 2012

Answer 2

The way I use "glad" most often is to say something like, "I'm so glad you're here" or "I'm so glad to see you." Other than that, I can't think of any particular expression we use with "glad."

Answer 3

Mariana I need you end your sentences....

He's gladder than (WHAT?.... a foot, an orc....)

Thanks

She was telling you there aren't any expressions with that form. ;) - inkubzz, Jun 4, 2012

Answer 4

Glad rags.

He was wearing glad rags. This means he was dressed up for a smart party. This is the only, only thing I can think of that might gladden your heart. Asd Robin says, we do use ' glad to see you' a lot.

You might also enjoy knowing that glad ( pronounced with along ' a' ) in Swedish, means happy..
