Your word isn't here yet

Join Hablaaa and add the expression no one else has documented.

/Sounds like the English word "me" (same pronunciation) + "GOOS" (as in "good") + "tahs" (as in "tar")/

Meaning

A direct expression for telling someone you're romantically or physically attracted to them, equivalent to 'I like you' in English. It's the first big step in confessing interest, before going as far as 'te quiero' (I care about you) or 'te amo' (I love you). Saying it out loud takes guts.

Examples

Look, I've liked you for a while and I wanted you to know.

I like her a lot but I don't know how to tell her.

Total nonsense, a huge blunder, or an idea so absurd it defies all logic and common sense. It's the natural reaction when someone proposes something completely ridiculous.
