Glossary Of Geography:
Very irregular topography resulting from wind and water erosion of sedimentary rock.
Example sentences:
Badlands are semiarid regions with sparse vegetation that experience high rates of erosion. Water and wind, instead of carving gentle hills and broad valleys, sculpt soft sedimentary rock into intricate mazes of narrow ravines, v-shaped gullies, knife-sharp ridges, buttes, and colorful pinnacles. (SOUTH DAKOTA BADLANDS)
Both badlands and gullies appear to have developed since European settlement and to be part of the same hydrological system with extensive areas of bare ground (badlands) feeding water to incising gullies. (ScienceDirect)
n the Badlands, soils can consist of sandstone, shale, and lignite. All soils have been modified by erosion (i.e. wind, water, and ice). (University of Idaho)

Note from asker:
I think more context is needed, especially country of origin. https://tureng.com/en/spanish-english/aventarse https://tureng.com/tr/ispanyolca-ingilizce/aventarse%20(m%C3%A9xico/guatemala/honduras/el%20salvador/nicaragua/panam%C3%A1) aventarse (méxico/guatemala/honduras/el salvador/nicaragua/panamá) |
You are a native English speaker living in USA, so I don't really see your problem. But as Tana says, we need more context |
as others have said, more context (a bit more of the dialogue and, at minimum, country of origin) are needed. there are many expressions that use "la madre" that have nothing to do with a mother. |
Looking that the context you hit the nail on the head. I am going to wait to see if more people will answer. For some reason I can't just give it to you. |
you have responded to Andres, could you please respond to the four of us who are asking you to provide proper context? The phrase on its own and without context will only result in guesses. Context is: who is saying it and to whom?/is it spoken or written?/what is the surrounding text (or other words spoken)?/what is the country of origin?...etc. etc. |
I agree 100% with others who have asked for additional context. What do you mean by, "Looking at the context, you hit the nail on the head. I am going to wait to see if more people will answer. ***For some reason, I can't just give it to you. *** The big question remains is that "mentir" and "aventar(se)", coupled with "la madre" mean different things. Are you even sure what little context you have provided is correct, or are you too guessing, and is perhaps a passing comment, or something you overheard? Regards. |
Andres, you hit the nail on the head. Thank you! |
