I\u2019m In\u00e9s Alba, from Real Spanish.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m sure you already know the expression <em>echar de menos. <\/em>This expression is used mostly in Spain because in Latin America they usually say <em>extra\u00f1ar<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The verb <em>echar <\/em>has different meanings in Spanish. It can mean throwing something, putting on adding or applying some product, or adding (salt etc.). It can also be used with the meaning of firing someone from work.<\/p>\n<p>This verb can be used with the preposition <em>a<\/em> and an infinitive to express the abrupt start of an action. For example: <em>echar a correr<\/em> (to set off at a run) or <em>echarse a llorar<\/em> (to burst into tears).<\/p>\n<p>There are also many colloquial expressions with the verb <em>echar<\/em>. For example, do you know the expression \u00ab<em>echar algo en cara\u00bb<\/em>? It means to reproach or accuse someone (to throw it in someone\u2019s face). That is, if someone has misbehaved with you, you can address this person to express your complaint about their behavior.<\/p>\n<p>Another widely used expression is <em>echarse atr\u00e1s<\/em> which means to back out of an agreement, a deal or a promise.<\/p>\n<p>To speak Spanish fluently, it\u2019s good to learn expressions like these. In Real Spanish you will find many mini-lessons based on common words with many uses such as <em>salir, leche, huevo, marchar, vuelta<\/em>....<\/p>\n<p>Visit our website now and try our free sample lessons.
