I enjoy discovering words and phrases that make speech more colorful and fun.
This post is Just for the fun of finding ways to use a word or a phrase, and expand vocabulary.
I hope you will try it.
Here is a word that we can have some fun with it is not very common.
Learners use any resource you wish to make your phrase. Post in English and Spanish
Mexicans will know this immediately so please wait a bit for us learners to post.
The word is "Tiradero" one of the uses is ' a disorder of things or a a lot of things scattered" It can even be toys or tools scattered around.
Do not confuse this word with "Tiradero" a shooting range- but use it that way if you wish,
Here is my example:
Quiero que recojas tu tiradero. clean up or organize your disorder.
Of course we have the " Tiradero municipal' of which most cities have more than one
Example:
" La ciudad tiene algunos tiraderos" or trash collection points
Don't trust the translator on this one. I am using this as a Mexican colloquialism.
Use it in any way you wish and lets see if we can have some fun with it. Add a photo if your so inclined.
A vote for all answers and most votes gets best answer.
Enjoy !
As always please advise me if you see typos or other errors.
