Pa´que sepas... - ¡Rompe el suelo! ¡En la torre! ¡Bravo!

Bravo por todos

y gracias como siempre. so parir is to give birth? I wonder if it has the same root as to farry.

It never fails! I find myself laughing aloud whenever I listen to Pa'que Sepas. I loved JP's reaction to the description of "abusadora" given by Leo. 

It seems to me that "¡Rompe el suelo!" can be translated to "dance your a** off" in English, verdad?

Gracias Spanishpod!

I read "rompe el suelo" in a newspaper article. It was used by an air traffic controller while advising a pilot that was in dire straits.  I interpreted it to mean "go for it, give it all you've got!"

Hola,

Thanks for answering my question, very much appreciated!!

Gracias,

Al

Hola donperigo.  "dar a luz" is another way to say "give birth" according to wordreference.com, which I've always thought is a beautiful way to say it.

It is much nicer. it certainly has less of a whiff of the farmyard. So I guess la madre que me dió la luz would be an even more genteel curse

Even if it does mean "go for it" it strikes me as a pretty insensitive thing to say to someone trying to land a plane. perhaps its one of those reverse luck things like "break a leg"

break ground = plow and by extention get started with planting, or start building

donperigo we have plenty of that whiff here today. Yesterday the farmer delivered 4 loads of manure to the garden.

I pray the dog stays out of it 'til we "rompe el suelo."

donperigo,

Ups, me equivoqué.  You're right, I went back to the article and it said "rompa los mínimos"!  Sorry, I got my wires crossed.
