A Latino man who spoke no English went into an American department store to buy socks. He found his way to the Men's Wear department where a young lady offered to help him.
"Quiero calcetines" said the man.

"I don't speak Spanish, but we have some very nice suits over here." said the salesgirl.

"No, no quiero trajes. Quiero calcetines." said the man.

"Well, these shirts are on sale this week." declared the salesgirl.

"No, no quiero camisas. Quiero calcetines." repeated the man.

"I still don't know what you're trying to say. We have some fine pants on this rack." offered the salesgirl.

"No, no quiero pantalones. Quiero calcetines." insisted the man.

"These sweaters are top quality." the salesgirl probed.

"No, no quiero sueter. Quiero calcetines." said the man.

"Our undershirts are over here." fumbled the salesgirl, beginning to lose patience.

"No, no quiero camisetas. Quiero calcetines." the man repeated.

As they passed the underwear counter, the man spotted a display of socks and happily grabbed a pair. Holding them up he proclaimed "Eso si que es!".

"Well, if you could spell it, why didn't you do that in the beginning?" asked the exasperated salesgirl.

Como he comprado muchas veces calcetines para día a día y he estado muy satisfecha con la compra no podría comprar de otra parte los calcetines que buscaba para el deporte, el producto vale mucho más que su precio, el sistema inédito de emplear el diseño escandinavo es muy bueno porque así el pie no se calienta mientras hace deportes y de esta manera eliminas los olores, además son muy cómodas y ligeros, muy buena compra.

Doesn't make sense, don't think about it any more. When you say that phrase you're not saying anything. They are trying to tell you that the letter S and O say (eso)-which means THAT. The letter C says (si)-which means YES. The letter K says (que)-which means WHAT. And another S says (es)-which means IS. It's trying to help you learn spanish words but in a very stupid way.

No, but I know the "socks ain't enough" story about 69 (soixante-neuf in French, get it?).
