“Blah, blah, blah.” Is there an equivalent in other languages?
How do you say it in French? Italian? Spanish? Portuguese? In ... blah, blah, blah?
|
Really? Do people really talk like that? In what language do YOU use "blah, blah, blah?"
When writing, "etc." comes to mind, but I would never write "etc., etc., etc." |
In Italian you say it "et cetera, et cetera, et cetera"
the "c" is prouncounced like English "ch" |
Bla, bla, bla is used in colloquial Spanish.
|
"Bleh, bleh, bleh..." is often heard in french. (At least that's how I'm assuming it's spelt!.... ah, yes it is - Mme DoGood confirms.)

I don't remember hearing "bla bla bla" in Spain, but my friends and I use the following a lot:
a hand gesture involving imitating a mouth while rolling our eyes. "tal tal tal" (for example: Y la tia estaba alli hablando. . . tal tal tal. . .ya sabes" "la la la" (I use this a lot with my host family, particularly my little sister, when they are running on and on) Three short exhales and a rolling of the eyes is also a big one. |
