#AskNostr What do native Spanish speakers call “shitposting”?
Discussion
Post basura
That doesn’t sound dirty enough. 😂
Wouldn't it be "basura de mierda"?
Yes, you could say “post de mierda”, but I see more “post basura” for this context
nostr:npub1fdx2kz3hqq40l475xugcu73y8sda2pupjp87zmgmce6kr244g2zs4sl8yl That just means “shit trash.” 🤣
most ppl use shitposting, at least here, if you say post basura they don't understand
Uruguay has a different dialect than Spain!
Posteando mierdas/gilipolleces
Gilipolleces? That’s a new one for me!
Un gilipollas is an asshole, a dick, an idiot, so una gilipollez (sing.) or gilipolleces (plur.) is what a gilipollas says. Broadly, nonsense, bullshit, stupid things.
It's a very Spain Spanish term, although other Latam dialects have derived terms (see Argentinian "Gil").
All that said, the term has a very broad meaning and has no clear one-to-one equivalent in English - or as the Rap Punk Metal band Def Con Dos puts it "Gilipollas no tiene traducción": https://youtu.be/zubodsu24q4?si=wwS_aBtMdSWJrd5O
I would say: publicando mierda
