Your word isn't here yet

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

/Sounds like the English word "no" (same pronunciation) + "teh" (as in "ten") + "NEHR" (as in "net") + "PEH" (as in "pet") + "lohs" (as in "loan") + "EHN" (as in "egg") + "LAH" (as in "lava") + "LEHN" (as in "let") + "gwah" (as in "Guam")/

Meaning

To speak with complete frankness, saying exactly what you think without worrying about offending anyone. Someone who "no tiene pelos en la lengua" (literally has no hairs on their tongue) will always tell you the truth, even the uncomfortable parts. Used as both a compliment and a fair warning.

Examples

She doesn't mince words and told them everything she was thinking.

I always say it straight: that was done wrong.
