Your word isn't here yet

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

/Sounds like "MEHN" (as in "met") + "soh" (as in "solo")/

Meaning

A dumb, silly person who doesn't catch on quickly. In Mexico, menso is a mild insult used between friends to point out that someone said something obvious.

Examples

Don't be menso, the answer is right there in front of you.

How menso am I, I left the keys inside the car.

Word family

Hilarious, extremely funny: the superlative of cotorro, which already means entertaining in Mexico. When something is cotorrísimo, it is not just funny but the kind of funny that makes you cry laughing and tell everyone about it afterward.
