Did you know Spanish has two common words for “fish”?
“Pez” = a living fish, swimming in water.
“Pescado” = fish caught for food.
So you'd see a “pez” in an aquarium, but order “pescado” at a restaurant 🐟

Then we have “hasta las cejas” o “hasta el culo” which can mean “a lot”, the former often used for food, the latter for alcohol, but we can also be “hasta las cejas de trabajo”

“Estar hasta las narices.”
Literally: “To be up to your nose.”
It means to be completely fed up with something or someone.
“Estoy hasta las narices de este tráfico.”
Do you use this expression? If not, what do you say instead?
