peer agreement (net): +2una persona con gracia, con donaire (irónicamente) Explanation: un "tío salao" es alguien con sal, con gracia, que cae simpático, a quien las cosas le salen bien naturalmente. Pero también se usa mucho irónicamente con el significado opuesto, como creo que pasa aquí: un hombre que es todo lo contrario de desenvuelto. DRAE: Sal = 2. f. Agudeza, donaire, chiste en el habla. 3. f. Garbo, gracia, gentileza en los ademanes |
