Phrase of the Week

This week’s phrase of the week is actually a group of phrases commonly used in Argentina.  They are used in all walks of life and in all situations.

  • puede ser: could be
  • tal vez: maybe
  • mas o menos: more or less
  • a veces: sometimes
  • nunca se sabe: you never know
  • quizá: perhaps

The sooner a non-Argentine learns and accepts these phrases as a part of everyday life, the more enjoyable of an experience they will have while in Argentina.
