"To Complain" An Examination

[Jay Anderson]

To complain: well hopefully you know that "com-" is a form of "con-" which is to say "with." As for "plain" well, please do not take my word for it (I'm not trying to convince you).  I suggest you look it up for yourself.

In Spanish:

The verb to complain in Spanish is probably best translated as "quejarse" (which happens to be a reflexive verb, and if you do not know what that means, I ask you, have you looked it up?).

In Portuguese:

Actually the Portuguese word "reclamar" also exists in Spanish.  But there also exists queixar-se, which basically means to quarrel (as does "quejarse" in Spanish).  In addition, there is the Portuguese word "lamentar-se."
