Spanish Word of the Day

refunfuñar- (verbo intransitivo) to grumble


To illustrate let's look at a quote from a book I am currently reading

 "Louisa, con su chándal rojo chillon suspira y masculla refunfunando un casi incomprensible: "por el amor de Dios!"

Translation: Louisa, in her loud red tracksuit sighs and mutters and almost incomprehensible grumbling "for the love of God".

From: Cuando la Comida es más que Comida-Geneen Roth
