Comment from Edith
Ha ha, it’s our national pastime here in Holland and I admit I’m guilty of it too. Expats in Holland, ranging from Japanese to Mexicans, have commented on this curious phenomenon. 
I hope Jon Hundt will post a comment on this too.
Comment from ben
Wow, you think the Dutch complain even more than the English and Spanish?!
Comment from Vecino de Retiro
Yo no quiero quejarme pero la respuesta a la pregunta B.1. es verdad no?
Comment from Luca
Well, together with our Spanish cousins, we Italians are …masters in complaining..everywhere, about everything…
(unfortunately) As far as complainging we’re the last word!
Comment from Marina
Hola Vecino de Retiro,
¿Te refieres al ejercicio B de la transcripción?
1. Marina cree que ella es más quejica que Ben.
Sería falso, en el podcast yo comento que en el pasado yo era más quejica que Ben… pero en el presente (y pasado cercano;-) él es mucho más quejica que yo.
Comment from Jo mama
What is she saying?!?
Comment from Mr. B
i have to admit that there are way too many things out in the world that give us a chance to complain, and we usually take that chance.
Comment from Luliladewyoming
¿Se puede usar quejica en la forma masculina, quejico?
Comment from Marina
No, se dice siempre quejica independientemente de que le estés hablando a un hombre o a una mujer:
A un hombre – “Eres un quejica”
A una mujer – “Eres una quejica”
Comment from Cara
