Geek Speak- Du-Lu Hsiao “How to be Spanish”

November 15, 2018 @ 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm

Not since Jamie Oliver shared his “paella with chorizo” recipe has an article in the British media sparked such anger among Spanish readers. This time, Chris Haslam, the chief travel writer at British daily The Times, who, with an article entitled “How to be Spanish,” has scored a (probably unwanted) viral hit on social networks and prompted thousands of irate comments. This article, full of Spanish clichés, such as the need to “swear like a trooper (coño, me cago en…, mierda, etc…), “drink your red wine cold,”( Kalimotxo), “always be late – unless a bull’s charging at you,” and many more, has raised the ire of many Spanish reader after a failed attempt to combine between the humor and the irony. Thus, in this Geek Speak we are going to give some answers of those cliché’s mentioned in the article and some suggestions on “How to be Spanish”.
