“Le voy llamar a la policía” If you are filled with instant panic whenever you see a police officer or a police car, it’s likely because your parents said they’ll call the cops to come take you away and put you in jail if you misbehaved. Some gaucho parents probably went so far as to have a police officer go along with pretending to arrest you if you were especially necio. Photo via Shutterstock Credit: Shutterstock
