Answer:T

The answer is a. dichos

Step-by-step explanation:

In spanish Language, there are shorts phrases or sayings that have a teaching or a metaphor and that are unique to a culture. These sayings known as "dichos" are expressed with grace and wit and reflect cultural aspects in this case, of the Latin American culture. Dichos do not have a literal meaning.

An example of a dicho is "No dar pie con bola". The literal english translation would be: "It doesn't match foot with ball" but the real meaning is that someone "just can't get it together"
