Spanish I Learned Watching the World Cup

In between gasping my way up hills, losing potential dinner invitations with my Global Doom and Gloom, job searching and tending to endless, indescribable digestion issues, I have also been attempting to improve my mostly-non-existent Spanish during our time in Peru. As luck would have it, the World Cup started the week that we arrived in Lima and was on for the duration of our stay in Cusco, leaving me with some key, invaluable phrases:

"Le mordió el hombro."


"El sueño terminó de la manera más humillante."


"Me abrí el ano y por eso sufrí tanto dolor. No quiero ser grosero, pero fue así."



And of course:

"¡Falta!"
