Honduran Spanish has distinctive expressions. Key phrases include “¿Qué tal?” (How are you?) and “Chuco” (Dirty/Messy). A common saying is “Más perdido que un garrobo en un guatal” (More lost than an iguana in a cornfield), referring to someone who’s completely lost. The idiom “Ser pura paja” (To be pure straw) means to be all talk and no action.
