Yes, slang is part of our lives and definitely we need to learn some slang words to understand when native speakers use them and, why not, with care, use them ourselves?<\/p>\n
A very cool slang word is mogoll\u00f3n<\/em>. Mogoll\u00f3n<\/em> is basically a big amount of something, oodles of something. It comes from Italian moccobello<\/em> or Catalan mogobells<\/em>, which mean a tip, money given to a service.<\/p>\n Here are some examples:<\/p>\n Hab\u00eda un mogoll\u00f3n<\/strong> de gente en la fiesta. Est\u00e1bamos como sardinas.<\/em> Llegaron en mogoll\u00f3n<\/strong>.<\/em> Vino un mogoll\u00f3n<\/strong> de chicos al partido.<\/em> It can also mean a mess, a “zoo”:<\/p>\n Mira qu\u00e9 mogoll\u00f3n<\/strong> hiciste aqu\u00ed.<\/em> A causa de los gritos de los vecinos se ha armado un buen mogoll\u00f3n<\/strong>.<\/em> Mogoll\u00f3n<\/em> can also be used an as adverb:<\/p>\n Eso mola mogoll\u00f3n<\/strong>.<\/em> La quiero mogoll\u00f3n<\/strong>.<\/em> Me divierto mogoll\u00f3n<\/strong> contigo.<\/em> We also have the expression de mogoll\u00f3n<\/strong> which means to do something free of charge, or not paying for it.<\/p>\n Se colaron de mogoll\u00f3n<\/strong> en la fiesta.<\/em> Si crees que vas a comer de mogoll\u00f3n<\/strong> aqu\u00ed est\u00e1s equivocado.<\/em> Logr\u00f3 aquel puesto de mogoll\u00f3n<\/strong>.<\/em> Bueno, por hoy es todo.
