Hi, I wonder if in the textbook they might have forgotten an �s � at the end of the word �trick � because the expression �to play tricks � is easy to understand...,????what do you think? kind regards |

Hi, epit,
When you ask for the meaning of something that you can �t find on your own, please provide as much context as possible. Since you googled it first (Thank you for trying), you know it isn �t a common expression. Please tell us how it was used in the book. Thanks, Bruce |

Hi again! You are right.I should have given it in its text. That is here: Julio lives in Madrid and he likes playing tick.He calls it "tiente". Maybe it is a kind of traditional children game .Thanks again |

That �s just what I needed. I googled Spanish games/"tiente" and found out that the English equivalent is "tag". I think the person who wrote that text mis-heard "tag" as "tick". Bruce |
