Colloquial expressions involving parts of the human body

Lic. Frans Carlos Castellanos Caballero, Lic. Daisy Pérez Sol, Lic. Isabel Alfonso Rivero y Lic. José M. Hernández Imbert

It is our intention with this work to illustrate colloquial expressions involving parts of the human body to avoid doctor-patient gaps in communications. Colloquial English is the language that people use in conversation. The words used in colloquial expressions do not bear the meaning they normally have. This language is used by any type of people, the difference lies in time, place and occasion involved.

Key words: Colloquial expressions, parts of human body.
