Expressions

[Noelia]

So, the last months I've been receiving a newsletter from a website called ebaby! with English expressions.

The site sucks, everybody is a learner, and doesnt make sense to me to talk to someone that is learning rather than a native speaker, BUT, the newsletter with expressions I find it really cool.

I took those expressions and put them together in a website for us, with the equivalent translation in Spanish (if applicable) or the literal translation.

Some expressions I still don't understand so you can go ahead and tell me so we can figure out the meaning in Spanish too.

Here's the site

you're welcome.

Intersante y útil.

1. 'tie the knot' - casarse.
2. Desde wordref.com 'to have an axe to grind', - tener un interés egoísta en algo
3. 'goody-goody' - de santito
4. 'stack-up'. No he oído esta frase antes, pero creo que quiere decir 'grow' o 'to add to' .
5. 'scramble' - rebatiña

Si estoy tratando de pensar en expresiones en espanol, no quiero traducir literalmente si puedo encontrar la version en espanol para ustedes.
