please, don't look for what it means Mamala in Spanish xD

[-] QuentinCallaghan@sopuli.xyz 6 points 3 months ago

And don't look for what "Kamala" means in Finnish.

Hey, they couldn't sell the Chevy Nova in Spanish-speaking countries either.

My favorite counter to the myth about 'Nova' and 'no va' is that in english, you wouldn't refuse to by a dining room set called "Notable".

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

I never thought about that. Good point.

[-] Telodzrum@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

That’s apocryphal. Guess what the word for a stellar nova is in Spanish.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Well TIL. But then I'm guessing they won't have an issue with 'Mamala' in this context either, if they even learn about it.

[-] S_H_K@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 3 months ago

I speak spanish "mamala" means "suck it" I guess some would understand some otgers would.laugh. I didn't make the conection until he mentioned really.

[-] Telodzrum@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago
