Answer 1

Narizón es alguien que tiene la nariz muy grande, se usa como insulto hacia los argentinos.

Que desafortunado el comentario, narizon se le dice a alguien que tiene la nariz grande y como los mexicanos insulten a los argentinos es un comentario exclusivamente xenofobico. Enseñarle como un insulto a un país no aporta nada a su aprendizaje. - 003e54f5, Jul 16, 2014

No, it doesn't help his learning, but it is teaching us (for better or worse) a bit of culture, which I personally am always interested in learning, whether it be considered good or bad. - rodneyp, Jul 16, 2014

I grew up in both California and Mexico City and never once heard "narizón" directed at any country but only to any person with a big nose. "Metiche" from "meterse en los asuntos de alguien" is "nosey" - 005faa61, Sep 10, 2014

i agree with that argentino insult thing - Rey_Mysterio, Sep 12, 2014

jaaj Rey_Misterio no sabia que nos decian asi y me cayo mal al principio, pero despues me causo gracia porque es un insulto muy 'infantil' supongo debe ser una de esas estupideces de internet :D - 003e54f5, Sep 12, 2014

I have never heard that used for "nosey." The word I always hear (and use) is "metiche."

Answer 4

it means big nose

metiche - nosey

Answer 5

NO: "entrometido" is the universal Spanish word, and each country has its own regional word for nosy as well.

Answer 6

Also chismoso: someone who is always trying to find out the chisme (gossip) and spread it to other people.
