I am a huge fan of The Shins and this is from their lyrics to Australia. I have been wondering what it means and can't find it anywhere!

Can someone PLEASE translate this to Spanish for me. I need a native speaker please, no internet translations. I'm sorry but this is so important to me, I am so grateful and I'm sorry for the length.

"I don't know what is happening in your life right now to make you so upset at me. I know you were having a bad day yesterday and I wanted to give you your space. I was only asking him to please help us when he was done helping you because we needed help up front. I had no idea you would get so mad over that and then when you walked out without saying anything, him and I went to go get food for everyone. That is when you called me a "______" and drove off angrily. Which is exactly what ________ had called me the day before and you said I shouldn't let anyone talk to me like that. After you said that I realized that all of the promises made were in vain. I am never going to understand why you chose to hurt me of all people.

I'm trying to figure out the feminine (if that's even necessary) way of saying "speak up" in Latin. The closest I came was “eloquor” (to speak out; express) and proloquor “ to speak out”. Does anyone have anything closer to what I am looking for or even a correction to the two translations I wrote earlier? Any help much appreciated. Thanks ahead of time to all.

The title was: Why do some people talk like this so much?
I mean, really. It takes 10 minutes to write a paragraph out of stuff like that.

Is there a word that exists in some language, perhaps aramaic or hebrew like language that sounds phoenetically like "leh-kude" ? I heard something that I thought was "leh-kude" and was wondering if there is such a word, and if so, what does it mean?

In English it's 'Raining cats and dogs'. In Welsh it's 'Raining old women and sticks'! In French I've heard 'It's raining ropes' and in Spanish 'It's raining enough to dry the grass'. Can anyone give me expressions in (any) other languages to convey that it's raining very heavily?
Thanks!
