@nicolasmagnabosco Concuerdo con tu traducción de "get someone in trouble", sin embargo en cuanto a la primer parte de la oración "tell on" significa básicamente "to snitch", no sé como lo dirán en México, pero creo que lo tradujiste como si fuese "tells it to me".

Gracias! y sí , es como “to snitch” y no sé si debo tener confianza en las palabras que encuentro en la red: soplar? (sé que quiere decir soplar normalmente) Chivatear? Ir con cuento? 🧐

@bcathy "delatar" is the most common translation. "chivatear" is only in Spain. "Soplar" isn't common, i haven't ever heard it, but you can call the person who does it "soplón". And "ir con cuento" doesn't even mean the same. "Ir con cuento" is more like telling someone something that isn't true but you want it to sound like it is.

Entiendo.
Pues entonces ir con cuento es más como “telling a story” en ingles con el sentido de mentir/telling a lie ;)
Muchas gracias!!

@bcathy Sure. Obviously the sentence "Contar un cuento" means "to tell a story" in a literal way. "Cuento" is a children's book.
"Ir con el/un cuento" means someone told a fake real-life story, for example when someone lies to their boss saying they arrived late because their car broke down when actually they were just sleeping.
