Well, that's in Mexico, but in Puerto Rico, it would go as:

No Cariño, tú no puedes comprar una nueva guagua!

(here no one uses the term camioneta

)

Okay in tha case you can say: " Where´s Victor when I need him!!!

...

..

Just teasing!...

, the correct form is:...

"Por favor, He perdido a mi Madre"
And ask for help about it:

"¿Puede por favor ayudarme a encontrarla?"

Thanks Rigel!!

Okay, Rigels translation for boxer shorts is a bit different.... you see, in Puerto Rico and Mexico we use calzoncillos. In Spain they might say calzones, in some parts of South America, "pantaloncillos".

Now understand, (I am thinking a bit of the underwear thread), that the translation is the same for both boxers and briefs, in most parts.

Unless of course, its Puerto Rico, which is such a special place that we say the word "boxers" in Spanish and "calzoncillos" for the briefs.
