¿De veras? Me sorprende un poco porque pensé que esta expresión no se usaba casi en México (en el centro es super raro oírla; siempre decimos encuerado/ en cueros/ como Dios te/lo/la trajo al mundo/ en traje de Adán/Eva, etc.

Zahra, Citlalli me habéis hecho reír
Por acá se emplean también ambas expresiones "en bolas" y "en pelotas"
y variantes como "en cueros vivos" o "en pelota picada" jejeje
Buen fin de semana niñas

What is the verb for "to drop something off"
I was going to drop it off at your house tomorrow. -
drop off=dejar Originally Posted by AnnaFoster

And is 'te' needed? Iba a dejarlo a tu casa mañana.
Also, does this sentence make sense?
¿Para dejarlo el lunes? -
No, 'pasar' is not essential; but that's the most natural way to say your sentence imho Originally Posted by AnnaFoster
If you leave out 'pasar', then you need to change preposition (pasar 'a'; but dejar 'en'): Iba a dejártelo en tu casa mañana.
And no, the 'te' is just to stress, to say 'I was going to drop it off for you' and once again, it just sounds more natural; we normally say: te lo dejé en la cocina; dejámelo en el escritorio, etc.
¿Para dejarlo el lunes? To leave it on monday?... mmhhh, sounds pretty odd to me.“If cats looked like frogs we'd realize what nasty, cruel little bastards they are. Style. That's what people remember.” ― Terry Pratchett. -
for future translations to you, I will keep that in mind, Im half Sinaloense so I know how they speak and the slang they use ... Originally Posted by AnnaFoster

I will, that'll be very helpful. Thank you! Originally Posted by Zahra2008

Hello, does the phrase "what did you have in mind?" translate to Spanish?
IE: "Do you want to get together tomorrow? Sure, what do* you have in mind?"
*works with both did and do. -
Yes, it does: '¿Qué tenías/tienes en mente?' Originally Posted by AnnaFoster
Ej. '¿Quieres que nos juntemos mañana? Seguro, ¿qué tienes en mente?'

How do I say "Tomorrow you want me to drop off the logo at your house?" (using both pasar and dejar, similar to your earlier examples). I'm curious to see if both verbs are conjugated.
Tomorrow you want me to pass by your house and drop off the logo is how I thought it would sound in english with pasar.
Mañana quieres que pase y te deje el logo a tu casa. ? That sounds funny.
AND
How do you say "You wanted the logo tomorrow?" My attempt: Querias el logo mañana? But then I wasn't sure if since it's something that's technically, maybe going to happen in the future (tomorrow) that maybe it would be future tense. Or subjunctive. The want however, is past tense, so I'm not sure!
Thanks!Last edited by AnnaFoster; 05-30-2010 at 07:54 PM.

You could also say: "¿Mañana quieres que pase por tu casa y te deje el logo?" Your second translation looks good to me. Originally Posted by AnnaFoster

I like both versions -yours and Bedroomeyes's- but in both cases I'd put "mañana" after "pase" or "casa", but not right at the beginning of the sentence. Another option would be "¿Quieres que pase mañana a dejarte el logo en tu casa?". Originally Posted by AnnaFoster
