Hi Elisa! The most common in Costa Rica are: -Bailar con la más fea. (It is used to record that someone has returned the worst part of something). -Tirar la toalla. (It is used to say that someone surrenders to a certain situation). -Sorprender a alguien con las manos en la masa. (Refers to the fact of observing a person at the time he is doing something illegal or wrong). Hope that helps!!!

aquí hay unas expresiones venezolanas muy famosas: -ahora las paredes mean a los perros (used when the worker wants to give orders to the boss) - un pana (a friend) - chevere (cool) -a pata 'e mingo (it is very close) -más agarrao que vieja en moto (a very selfish person) - éramos mucho y parió la abuela (used when a problem hasn't been solved yet and another one comes out ) :)

Gracias, Antonio. Tiene sentido, Anita.
