Same way we have words and expressions in Spanish that are not part of formal language, we have expressions in English that, eventhough they are not high registered, they are very important and useful at the moment of speaking with someone about any topic. This blog will be a bombshell for all of you... I assure you, you will learn a lot of great things here.
