Phrase of the Week

December 4th, 2008 Posted in phrase of the week

no me corte: don’t hang up on me.

This one is hilarious, because whenever we call technical support in Argentina (internet, etc), the operator always says “no me corta” and puts you on hold.

We called the business, we have a problem, why would we hang up on the operator?

But what really makes it laughable is that the operator usually ends up being the one that hangs up suddenly!

    Perdoname que te corrija nuevamente, pero no es “no me corta”, es “no me corte”, que sería para el caso lo mismo que decir “espere, por favor”…

    Saludos, de un asiduo lector.
