Mexi-Vocabulario: Arrullar

Mexi-Vocabulario: Arrullar | mexicanismos | Scoop.it

Arrullar. To put one to sleep. Or in this tertiary definition on WordReference.com, which by the way is my favorite, it means to enamorar con palabras dulces (to make one fall in love with sweet words). ¡Ay caray! ¡Qué románticon!

 

In reality my reason for selecting this word is much less on the amoroso side...

People En Español’s Most Popular… err, Beautiful Gente

People En Español’s Most Popular… err, Beautiful Gente | mexicanismos | Scoop.it
More of a popularity list really, People en Español’s 50 Most Beautiful people… well celebrities, edition is at your local grocery stores and retail shops now. As if you hadn’t already noticed, with all the promotion People does every year to get as much attention as possible during this time. They even have an entire TV show dedicated to announcing the bellos on Univision now.

This year, though, for some reason, the list of famosos being recognized, to me, is missing a little oomph. A little star power. A little pizazz. The themes are interesting, sure. Vintage looks on the usual suspects we’ve seen get the most exposure on various media over the last 12 months, but not much else. Pero bueno, you judge for yourselves.
