picar leña para una viuda Explanation: No slang here as far as I can tell. Just someone helping out a neighbour with her firewood. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2010-09-28 17:20:20 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Of course, if we saw the expression in *context*, it might turn out to be something extremely vulgar - well beyond the bounds of mere 'slang' and verging on the pornographic. |
