Francesco Badolato Italy Diego 10:22 May 27, 2020  sarebbe indispensabile avere più contesto inglese o in alternativa sapere qual è la situazione in cui si svolge la frase. Potrebbe anche significare che non ha il tempo né le matite colorate per spiegarlo ma potrebbe anche avere un altro significato. Dipende dal contesto. Elena Volpato Germany 10:11 May 27, 2020  Diego, questa è tosta! Purtroppo non ho una soluzione, ma "crayon" in diversi contesti sembrerebbe indicare una persona stupida. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Crayon https://www.quora.com/I-dont-get-the-whole-marines-with-cray... Magari puoi dirci un po' dei personaggi che pronunciano questa frase? Stavo anche pensando che forse è usata al posto di una parolaccia con cui ha una certa assonanza come noi usiamo "cavolo" invece di ci a zeta zeta o. Automatic update in 00:

cos'è, devo farti un disegno? Explanation: It's basically saying you're stupid and I don't have crayons to draw out what I'm trying to say to your infantile mind. And even if I had the crayons I don't have the time to draw it out. It implies the person being spoken to need it to be explained to them like a child with colourful drawings. (So you're basically calling the person dumb or a child). It's basically saying that you're dumb and you need things explained in bright colours/crayons. https://www.reddit.com/r/OutOfTheLoop/comments/3qeofq/can_so... l'espressione italiana è analoga, certo la formulazione dipende dal contesto	AdamiAkaPataflo Germany Local time: 21:41 Native speaker of: Italian PRO pts in category: 52
