El Dolor De Cabeza

Real World Example

The Spanish phrase "el dolor de cabeza" translates to "headache" in English. To help you remember it, think of the famous fictional detective, Sherlock Holmes. Imagine Sherlock saying, "Elementary, my dear Watson, solving this case is giving me quite the 'doleful' riddle in my 'cabeza'!" Here, "dolor" sounds like "doleful," which means sorrowful or causing grief, and "cabeza" sounds like "case." So, the "doleful case" in Sherlock's head is, quite literally, a headache! 🕵️‍♂️
