The Welshwoman Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 Why does Manny call Glottis and some other friends of his "Mano" at times? In Spanish, it just means 'hand' (weird nickname to give a friend if you ask me!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Eggplant Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 hmmm... I have never heard Manny call anyone Mano. there is Mano a mano which means man to man but Glottis is not a man and Manny is a male skeleton. I mean Glottis is his right hand sort of guy, or maybe it means something else or maybe you thought Manny said it, another more experienced GF gamer will have to answer your question Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Welshwoman Posted September 29, 2002 Author Share Posted September 29, 2002 Mano meaning friend? Then why would he say "Hijole mano"? What would that mean? "Hijole to my friend"? WHat the heck does Hijole mean? heh heh heh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metallus Posted September 29, 2002 Share Posted September 29, 2002 I have a theory. After looking it up on several online dictionaries and getting nowhere, I think the "mano" you're referring to could be an abbreviated form of hermano, meaning brother, rather than having something to do with "hand". Just a guess, but it makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiMP RABBiT Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 Just browsing through this thread, does anyone have any idea. I meen, how many completely different translations can there be. How can one word meen hand, brother, and man in one. It might make conversations a bit difficult. For example, Hey mano! What, Im not your brother! No I meen MANO! I aint your hand either, psyco.

MeddlingMonk Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 You can fire a gun, you can fire an employee, you can fire a memo...and yet we have no problem keeping the different meanings straight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GendoTheGreat Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 Yes, it's simple as long as you know what a gun, an employee, and a memo are. If you couldn't identify the noun you'd be up in the air just like we are here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
