Les faltó uno muy popular
"Le faltan 5 para el peso "
I’m salvadorean and currently live in the U.S, moved here when I was 8.
I’m glad to hear that you guys enjoy the motherland. Living vicariously through you guys lol
"No tener dos dedos de frente" comes from people in El Salvador thinking people with big and wide foreheads are smarter than others.
Implying that having a "big" forehead or being able to put 4 fingers on someone's forehead makes them smart individuals.
And the fingers are held horizontally in front of your forehead, to measure from your hairline to your eyebrows, like, the wider your forehead the smarter you are believed to be.
Hahaha that's so funny! Thanks for sharing.
Yeap
I never heard that one ! Maybe because they new it only fit 1!? Now it fits 4 jajajaja it is age , got old !
Emmanuel Cruz thanks, know I can relax myself and continue watching the video cause someone made that clear LOL buena respuesta bdw
Mandar a alguien por el tubo
Is like when you’re dating and one of the person breaks up with the other when you ask what happened to your girlfriend then you say la Mande por el tubo
The last sentence "Mas vale malo conocido, que bueno por conocer" Can be use like in politics. Someone you already know as a bad politic but the opponent could be worst. So you keep or choose that one you already know
Ohhh I see. That is a good example. Thank you!
La Gringa Perdida You're welcome. And congrats, you girls are doing a good job
"Better stick with the devil you know..."
That’s the first time I heard it! I know más vale viejo por conocido que nuevo por conocer
Para mí es. más vale lo viejo conocido... qué lo nuevo por conocer, ejemplo si te encuentras en una carretera y hay dos caminos pero solo conoces a uno de ellos prefieres irte por el que ya conoces y no por el otro que no sabés a dónde te va a llevar 😉
Me gustan sus videos chicas, gracias por mostrarnos lo Hermoso de El Salvador I love my country ❤️🇸🇻
Thank you for watching our videos. I love your country too!
Lily Rivera eres muy guapa
Larry Kapolla muchas gracias.
Hola chicas me llamo yonger
Yo vivo en Virginia 🇺🇸 hola
Estas frases son "modismos Salvadoreños" difícilmente entendidos por otros latinos.
Se puso hasta las chanclas y mandar por un tubo son muy usadas en Mexico
@@DanielleAyala phrases are use like idioms in English, but my be different in another countries in Latin America xD
Last one means.
Like if you have a
Bad boyfriend better to stay with him than new person you don't know
"Mejor lo malo conocido que lo nuevo por conocer" means the chances you take to try something new, sometimes the risk to do something new is higher than the chanced of getting something bad by doing what you are currently doing. Good job girls! Nice channel. Alfredo
Son frases muy conocidas en varios países de habla hispana y si traducidas a otros idiomas no tienen sentido.
En inglés dicen cuando llueve mucho .
It's raining Cats and dogs
Que traducido al español no tiene sentido
Está lloviendo gatos y perros
Lo que en español decimos
Está lloviendo a cántaros
About the last one I was reading some of the comments but actually it is "Más vale lo viejo conocido que lo nuevo por conocer" and the friend mentioned something about politics that is a good example, so literally it´d be something like "Known the old is better than the new to know" well this is the first time I come to your channel and I gotta say it´s awesome you're visiting us and sharing videos related to our beautiful tiny country, by the way you´re so pretty, I really enjoyed watching your videos !!
Q buena colaboración han hecho, felicitaciones son muy divertidas y son personas muy agradables ambas, saludos
Muchas gracias!! :)
muy Linda's felicidades
Pareses d suchi.chicas k Buena su. Video
Soy salvadoreño y no había escuchado algunas de esas frases pero río mucho con ustedes. Me encanta cuando hablan inglés ❤️
Yep you guys nailed that last one it's used for when like in your neighborhood there's bad people and you need to know who those bad people are for your own sake cause that's better than knowing who the good neighbors are so the closest would be Keep your friends close and your enemies closer 😉 greetings from UT
I love how u guys are always smiling and in a good mood therapeutic lol
nice to see you both, you guys are a true blessing to El Salvador
Thank you very much!
I love your videos. 'Ponerse las pilas' is acting or reacting quickly or not falling behind, it's similar to 'camarón que se duerme se lo lleva la corriente'. 'Mandar a alguien por un tubo' is like when you send someone to hell or when you break up with or reject someone. And the very last one is 'mas vale viejo conocido que nuevo por conocer', which means it's better to stick to something or someone you know rather than trying something new.
Faltó una palabra muy típica usada en nuestro país y es: "cabal" ,que es como decir: "asi és", "correcto", una aprobación de algo..
Un amigo salvadoreño aquí en los Estados Unidos dice eso cuando un trabajo queda perfecto o una medida de trabajo queda bien.
Se dice quedo Cabal
Gilberto Negrete ella la usa en otros videos
I love both of your channels individually but, together you guys are double the excitement. If you haven’t done any outings together yet you should. Thanks again great job
Thank you guys! Some of these phrases i have not heard in a long time. It reminds me of my grand parents growing up in El Salvador. It makes sense when you have common sense in both Cultures. You guys crack me up!
I have never heard "sacar la piedra"
Bellas las dos y son muy divertidas, muy interesante y entretenido video de frases que ya ni me acordaba de ellas
Gracias por hacer vídeos de la vida cotidiana en El Salvador
Thank you for watching!
Más vale malo conocido que bueno por conocer”. Means that is not wise to risk what you have or what you've known for something that might not be neccesarely better than what you have or have known.
Or in a few words stick to what you know instead of venturing into the unknown.
Que bueno mirarlas juntas, me gusta sus videos. I like your videos😍😘😍 Juliana esta traduciendo al Salvadoreño Jaja muy divertido. Se me cumplio mi deseo. You guys made my dream come true😍😘
Thank you for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed the video.

Dichos y Refranes muy usados en El Salvador. Thanks girls you are doing a great job. Saludos desde Australia ❤😘😘
I saw the both videos but i really love this gringa beautiful thanks.
Loved this video. Maybe do one with English sayings?
Thank you! Yes, I would like to make one with English sayings too.
Thank you! I would like to do a similar video, except with English sayings.
Yes ! Make it rain !?
The last phrase means to stay in your confort zone or stay somewhere where you know everything thank taking the risk of getting to know something new that you don't have any idea if it's going to be fine or good! Or it also can mean it is better to know when people are bad than people who are suppously good! 🤔 taking advantage (aprovechando haha) I feel like this kind of videos are super interesting!
Lindas las dos felicidades muy buenos los dichos
Hahahahaha.... ¡Ponéte las pilas! 😆 I love that expression, I use it a lot. "Sacar la piedra", hmmm I've never heard of it b4 but seems to make sense in Spanish.
Oh my God
Is good to see both of you together in this video.
God bless both of U...
GIRLS You guys are doing very good job I’m so impressed Wish you guys the best keep it up
Thank you very much! I'm glad you like our videos!
You guys are funny, creative and fun to watch:)
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoy the videos.
Jajajajaja esos dichos solo se oyen en El Salvador ... Arriba el pulgarcito
será porque son frases salvadoreñas??
En Honduras también son comunes ...todas son frases comunes de nuestra area....nada que solo sean salvadoreñas
ElCatra1 lo hondureños le copian a los Salvadoreños tengo entendido saludos desde san jose costa rica
Yo nunca he escuchado a alguien que diga "mandar por el tubo"
Osmin Escobar en Venezuela, Chile, Colombia, Peru, Honduras etc etc también las dicen mi hermano.
Créeme. A mi me consta.
I think the last one is the 'the devil you know is better than the devil you don't'. Great video!
That is a good way of putting it. Thanks!
What a good contribution, really helpful! Thumbs up!😁
Thank you! I'm glad you thought it was helpful.
I remember those words growing up in El Salvador.
The "mejor malo conocido que bueno por conocer" means that sometimes changing your life around something that you know is bad or maybe just not so good, just to TRY and get something better has a chance of failure which could end with you wasting money, resources and time, just for the offshot chance of getting something better.
"Mas vale malo conocido que bueno por conocer" =it is better bad one known than good one to be known. Usually, people say "mal" which translates to "evil" but the phrase is so popular that nobody says it the right way.
It is used when there is uncertainty. Let's say, you have and old car that is giving you a problem that you know how to deal with VS. A newer car that you heard good things about from someone ( car seller who wants to sell it to you and tells you it is better than your older car) but you really xo not know if it is going to break down as soon as you drive it off the dealer lot. Sometimes it is better to hold onto what you got than taking unnecessary risks. Makes me think of a country song by Dierks Bentley " i hold on" .
May God bless you girls
You hammered it! All your explanations were great, it's really awesome to see two "chelitas" trying to understand our Salvadorian slang and phrases. Keep it up! I got a Salvadorian phrase for you. Try to figure this one out! "No fué a trabajar porque agarró zumba"! Good luck with that one.
Buen trabajo muchachas.! soy del Salvador y vivo en Houston TX..saludos
😂😂😂😂 I love to hear those frases 😂
I am from El Salvador and it's so many frases that I don't know.
#11. Take the first chance! Don't wait for a better one. Better to secure one before it's too late, who knows if you will have any opportunity. It doesn't matter if it's not the best! "Mas vale pájaro en mano que cién volando."
Nice & fun video! God bless you girls!!
Hello princesses, here is onother one... "A caballo regalado no se le miran los dientes" / A gift horse in the teeth not look ( It means that when someone gives you some gift it's not good to criticize it) that is, it is not of good education ... Greetings from Argentina I loved you video, proverbs and pronunciations and you both too!
Mas vale pajaro en mano que cien volando. Asi deciamos no se si ya cambiaron.. Me gustó mucho este video
# 8 means if I'm not wrong refers to experience and reputation. Personally I don't use it, because I serve the Lord and there are many words I just don't use anymore, but I wanted to Throw out there my opinion. Blessings you guys are doing z great job!

Suscribanse a este canal , ellas se lo merecen porque muestran los bellos paisajes del país
Dos dedos de frente quiere decir q entre mas pequeña es tu frente mas menso eres y entre mas frentudo eres mas smart and you measure it by putting your hands on your frente and see how many finguers takes it to cover it
Y saludos Juliana I've been subscribed to your channel for a while.
Muchas gracias por compartir los refranes de El Salvador. Me encanta el canal de las dos y las veo frequente. Nosotros aveces ocupabamos este refran. "Ponete Buso" the English translation is to become a diver which kind of doesn't make sense at all if you say it in English. But it actually means to encourage someone to become alert and pay attention or also a good translation could mean to put your thinking cap on. Take care ladies and God bless :)
Oh that is a good example as well. I had never heard that one before. Thank you for sharing. I am glad you enjoy our videos. God bless you too!
Wow!!!! They are so cute and so natural my pleasure to see them sharing time together in my country God bless them and I hope you enjoy all from el Salvador such as food weather people beaches and lot more have fun we have so much to share and you will always be more than welcome to my country thank you for share your videos experience with us
Thank you. I'm glad you like the videos and yes, I would like to experience all your country has to offer here.
Hey! you are so funny and it feels that you really enjoy being here (El Salvador) that is nice, always keep the good vibes, i'm very pleased to hear you enjoying our country, it has a lot to give. cheers. Disfrutenlo que es de uds tambien.
That's exactly how we used to spend time in the teacher's room. Very funny young ladies.
Thank you! I'm glad you thought it was funny.
Me alegro mucho de que estés en El Salvador le envíe el primer vídeo de ti a.mi amigo. Willian we ride bikes y he love your video I am so proud of you how you like our country . Saludos from. Maryland.
El ultimo se refiere a mas vale conocer lo malo que conocer algo bueno que talvez podria no ser tan bueno y terminar por ser aun mas malo(LITERALMENTE: no me arriesgare por algo que desconosco)
The phrase, “Mas vale mal conocido que bueno por conocer” that’s like when you have friends but you know that they have 2 faces. Like fake friends. That’s why “mas vale mal conocido” that you know who your haters and “que bueno por conocer” like a friend that seems to be your friend but he/she talks behind back. Well, that’s what my grandad told me or what I understood.
y que me dicen de: AH, SABER!
En lo personal la que me hizo reir fue "Por si las Moscas". Tenia mucho tiempo de no escuchas esa frase. Gracias.
Me saco la piedra - Someone make you so mad that you are almost ready to hit him/her with the metaphorical rock (it was their actions that draw the response, you were provoked)
Hola hermosuras
Mandar a alguien por un tubo
Eso significa cuando tú terminas con tu novio
Es cuando ya no lo quieres
The right word is Break up
For example
He broke up with me because he needed his space
Ok thank you for explaining. That makes a lot more sense!
Saludos hermosas las miro desde México , y la mitad de las frases también las desimos aquí en México , pero la otra mitad no las conocía 😂😘
(Si así como lo mueven lo baten que rico chocolate an de hacer ) !!!
I guess "ponete las pilas" can be translated as "step up your game" when it comes to dating or wanting to win someone's affection... ponerse las pilas con una chera.
Step up your game makes sense. I can see how it would mean that.
Gracias!🇸🇻🇸🇻🇸🇻
El último es: "más vale lo viejo conocido que lo nuevo por conocer" lo que significa es que es mejor algo que ya conoces con anterioridad que no te causará ninguna sorpresa a arriesgarse con algo que no conoces y que por lo tanto podrías llevarte una sorpresa que podría ser algo positivo o negativo.
Ok. Gracias por explicarlo!
Great video!!! Loved the you colllaboroted together
Thank you! I'm glad you liked the collaboration.
Last phrase means: stick to what you already know even if sometimes may be bad or workout bad than jump into something Unkown even if it sound good.
That is a good way of explaining it. And maybe that is a wise saying then. Thanks!
El origen de la expresión "Echó la piedra", de acuerdo a los abuelos, se debe a un cuento o leyenda en donde un hombre valiente pelea con una serpiente, y al vencerla esta vomitó, o echó una piedra de su boca, pero no recuerdo qué virtudes tenía dicha piedra. En el diario vivir de un salvadoreño, echar la piedra significa, decir la verdad pero obligado por alguien o por alguna circunstancia. Saludos Julianna, eres una linda chica, simpática y lo más hermoso, amas esta bendita tierra, Dios te bendiga.
Adult forehead is bigger specially in male , that is what is talking about when it says "no tiene dos dedos de frente"
so. is in reference to the forehead , equating the forehead to being wiser or mature. frente is forehead in that case.
Qué significa: “Más vale malo conocido que bueno por conocer” es un refrán que llama a la cautela, pues afirma que no conviene arriesgar aquello que se tiene o se conoce por algo que es supuestamente mejor.
Affirms that it is not convenient to risk what you have or know for something that is supposedly better
I see. Thank you for the example and for explaining :)
La Gringa Perdida you’re welcome :)
Love your videos ladies😀😀
You guys are awesome!!!!
Camarón que se duerme se refiere bastante a los pasmados
Mandar a alguien por un tubo... significa rechazar 😁
Gracias!
Or to tell someone to go pound sand
100% got it, all depends on the context.
Tienen muy buena pronunciacion, your Spanish sounds very natural 😀
Hello girls awesome awesome, you girls found each other !!
yes in El Salvador we have our on way to talk 😀😁😂. Great funny video . Blessings !!
Thank you! And yes, you all do have your own way to talk! I'm glad you thought the video was funny.
La Gringa Perdida I can tell you that sometimes is even harder for us to understand each other 😄😁.
What do you think about our food?
Hello from Minneapolis-MN. I’m new here by the way. I’m amazed about your deep knowledge of Spanish. I speak 5 languages by the way. Where are you guys from ?
La ultima es , es mejor quedarse con lo malo pues ya lo conoces, q conocer algo que parece bueno pero es quizas aun mas malo , se les olvido (de aguas manzas librame )
You two are just beautiful and I’m trying no to blink to not miss a second 💐💐
*Hola saludos , eso de sacar la piedra es una expresión hasta donde yo se muy colombiana , nada que ver con la jerga Salvadoreña , ahora 2 dedos de frente ( consideramos que una persona con mucha frente es por que tiene un gran cerebro , por lo tanto una frente muy pequeña es un cerebro muy pequeño ) noto Julianna que a pesar que has vivido prácticamente toda tu vida en El Salvador , aun te falta conocer mucho de nuestros dichos y sus significados , muy bonito video , saludos desde 🇨🇦!*
Raul Ernesto ,,,somos,los,mejores,y fuimos,los,mejores,para trabajar,y si hablamos,asi,es,por que,nos,gusta,y se queden,con la,boca,abierta,los,demas,se ve,que,no sabes,esas,jergas,que,tu,dices,se,hablan,aqui,y nosotros,si,entendemos,tus,jergas,y,las,de los,demas,paises,y podemos,imitarlos,si queremos
It's nice having you both grigas in this video I love just about everything you talk in your videos saludos from Owings Mills MD.
Thank you for watching! I'm glad you like our videos together.
I'm new here 😁
Buen vídeo 👍🏻
Welcome! Thank you :)
Hopefully you make more videos juntas (Julianna y la gringa perdida)
I think we will make more together in the future
Funny because if you say "piss me off" in English it's to be mad but in Spanish it would mean to have pissed yourself and be turned off lol
Ponerse las pilas es no quedarse dormido o estar alertas. Ponerse las pilas: If you realize it, the batteries doesn't work if they have no power. Hi, La Gringa perdida, what I can tell you is that, these terms are sometimes used in specific areas of the country. I see that when you and Juliana made those videos and when other people comment them too. I am from the east of the country and I do not know all these phases that you have mentioned. Mas vale malo conocido que bueno por conocer: The same thing can happen with things and people. You know that your boyfriend has some imperfections and you see another man ,who looks better physically, but you don't know anything about him ...If you choose to change your boyfriend, then another phrase can be use. Que te pase las de "el perro de las dos tortas". Haber quien conoce estas otras pharses: Ir por lana y salir pelado. ..El que nace para tamal del cielo le caen las hojas. ..Perico come y pato paga...Asi como roncan duermen...El que escupe para arriba en la cara le cae...We don't even realize how much we can twist people's brain with those terms. When we don't want someone (children or visitors)to understand us, we can talk using some phrases.
Definitivamente dos bellos angelitos!
Definitely two beautiful angels!
Example:Ponete Las pilas en la escuela = get your stuff together at school or be alert
Mandarlo por un tubo. That means like when somebody get on your nerves and you get to tired of it. You course that person out. I’ve heard that mostly in relationships. Like when your boyfriend/girlfriend is being so distant from you and you’re getting tired, so you just want to break up. So you say, “Lo/la voy a mandar por un tubo.” Hope you understand my explanation.
HONESTLY I DID ENJOY IT
YOU KNOW LENGUAGES ARE PART OF A CULTURE
Yes, languages are definitely a part of culture. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Que lindas felicidsdes yo soy salvadoreño y vivo en Houston
Both of you are awesomely beautiful and fun ...funny salvadoran slangs ,gracias por compartir 🇸🇻😁
That last one means that you know how a bad person is and what he could do but you still don't know how the suposed to be good one is
yo soy de chalatenango y nunca he escuchados esas frases , wow . en cada departamento tiene sus frases
Son frases de otras países también
Hola mis niñas ya me suscribí con mi Gringuita perdida las quiero mucho porque tienen la misma edad de mi niña también muchas bendiciones para ustedes y su familia 💕😘🌹🌹🇸🇻🇺🇸
Wow muy divertido y también podemos aprender inglés y español las felicitó por sus videos la gringa perdida y Juliana morgan
I'm glad you thought they were funny and you liked them!
La Gringa Perdida thank you 🤗🤗🤗
La Gringa Perdida keep going like that whit the videos
Dos dedos de frente is a measurement! Like basically if you put two fingers on your forehead (like measuring) thats how small your brain is - like in El Salvador they measure things using their fingers like you're are the hair dresser and they'll say "Im gonna cut three fingers off your hair" so they'll literally measure three fingers and cut it off
If you two girls want me to translate the comment below in Spanish I'll do it or maybe I translate it in French language also.
