To cheat on someone in Spanish


Do you have a feeling your novio/a is sleeping with someone else? Here's a couple ways to confront them. The most common way is:
 
You're cheating on me!
¡Me estás poniendo los cuernos!
¡meh ehs-tAHs poh-nee-ehn-do lohs cwehr-nohs!
 
Cuernos means "horns." The literal translation of this is "You're putting the horns to me." This is an informal/colloquial way to say it but it's most common. A more formal way to say it is:
 
You're cheating on me!
¡Me estás engañando!
¡meh ehs-tAHs ehn-gahn-yahn-doh!
 
Which literally translates to "You're deceiving me" but if you're speaking to your Spanish girlfriend/boyfriend they know what you're talking about. If you want to confront them about why they cheated on you, you can say:
 
Why did you cheat on me?
¿Por qué me pusiste los cuernos?
¿pohr kEH meh poo-sees-teh lohs cwehr-nohs?
 
…or..
 
Why did you cheat on me?
¿Por qué me engañaste?
¿por kEH meh ehn-gahn-yahs-teh?
 
An unfaithful lover/spouse is infiel.
 
If you someone cheated you on a game or a transaction you can still say ¿Por qué me engañaste? The cheater would be called a tramposo.
 

Fiances and being engaged in Spanish

Today I'm going to cover things related to being engaged in Spanish.
Notice the Spanish verb used is comprometerse.  You'll probably find this most common in Latin America. When in Spain swap out comprometerse for prometerse.
 
Here's some common expressions:
 
I'm engaged.
Estoy comprometido/a.
ehs-toy kohm-proh-meh-tee-doh/ah.
 
Who are you engaged to?
¿Con quien estás comprometido?
¿kohn kee-ehn ehs-tAHs koh-proh-meh-tee-doh?
 
We got engaged.
Nos comprometimos.
nohs cohm-proh-meh-tee-mohs.
 
We are engaged.
Estamos comprometidos.
ehs-tah-mohs kohm-proh-meh-tee-dohs.
 
They got engaged.
Se comprometieron.
seh kohm-proh-meh-tee-her-ohn.
 
They are engaged.
Están comprometidos.
ehs-tahn kohm-proh-meh-tee-dohs.
 
He (or she) got engaged.
Se comprometió.
seh kohm-proh-meh-tee-OH.
 
He (or she) is engaged.
Está comprometido/a.
ehs-tAH kohm-proh-meh-tee-doh/ah.
 
He proposed to her.
Se le declaró.
seh leh deh-klah-rOH.
 
"Fiancé" (man) and "fiancée" (woman) are indentical in Spanish and English. (They both stole from the French.)
 
Don't forget the ring:
 
engagement ring
anillo de compromiso
ah-nee-yoh deh kohm-proh-mee-soh

¿Con quién vives?

The most basic conversation openers

You don't need a magic bullet to get a conversation rolling. If you are traveling in a Spanish speaking country one of the most natural ways to open a conversation is to ask for directions or a recomendation. I added a bunch of these basic phrases to the Hook Up Spanish Phrase Guide.

A taste:

Recommendations:

What's there _____ around here?
¿Qué hay de _____ por acá?
¿kEH igh _____ pohr ah-kAH?

What do you recommend _____ around here?
¿Qué recomiendas _____ por aquí?
¿kEH reh-koh-mee-ehn-dahs _____ pohr ah-kEE?

to do
hacer
ah-sehr

to see
ver
vehr

to do at night
hacer por la noche
ah-sehr pohr lah noh-cheh

to eat
comer
koh-mehr

Excited vs. Horny in Spanish

People starting out learning Spanish sometimes use excitado/a for the word "excited" since they are spelled almost the same. Excitado/a does mean "excited" but in a sexual way. If you're excited about something, like a vacation for example, you want to use emocionado/a instead. To describe something exciting you can use emocionante.

I'm excited. (horny)
Estoy excitado/a.
ehs-toy ehk-see-tah-doh/ah.

I'm excited. (enthusiastic, thrilled)
Estoy emocionado/a.
ehs-toy eh-moh-see-ohn-ah-doh/ah.

It was exciting.
Fue emocionante.
fweh eh-moh-see-ohn-ahn-teh.

Excitado/a is probably the most formal way to say "horny." Here's some others; caliente, cachondo/a (depending on the country can mean "horny" in a more humorous way) and arrecho/a (probably less universal than the others).

If you want to tell your lover that he/she is making you horny in Spanish remember they that they say "putting me horny" using the verb poner instead of "making me horny" using the verb hacer:

You are (really) making me horny.
Me estás poniendo (muy) caliente.
meh ehs-tAHs poh-nee-ehn-doh (mwee) kah-lee-ehn-teh.

Enjoy!
