To be a pain in the ass.

意思

To annoy or bother someone greatly, to be very troublesome.

🌍

文化背景

In Spain, this phrase is ubiquitous. You'll hear it in bars, on the street, and in casual TV shows. It's considered 'mild' slang compared to other options. Mexicans rarely use 'dar por saco'. They prefer 'dar lata' or the much more vulgar 'estar chingando'. Using 'saco' might sound like a 'Peninsular' (Spanish) affectation. In Argentina, 'hinchar las pelotas' (to swell the balls) is the common equivalent for this level of annoyance. 'Dar por saco' is understood but not used locally. Colombians might use 'dar lora' (to give parrot) to describe someone who is being annoying by talking too much, or 'fregar' for general annoyance.

🎯

Use with 'Qué'

Instead of a full sentence, just say '¡Qué por saco!' when something goes wrong. It sounds very native.

⚠️

Regional Sensitivity

Stick to 'dar la lata' in Latin America until you've heard locals use 'dar por saco' first.

It's considered 'low-register' or slang, but not strictly vulgar. It's a euphemism, so it's safer than the original phrase but still informal.

No, it's too informal for a student-teacher relationship. Use 'molestar' or 'importunar'.

In the original vulgar phrase, it's a placeholder for the anus. In the euphemism, it's just a 'sack'.

Yes, the meaning is the same, but 'dar por saco' is stronger and more informal.

You say 'Me estás dando por saco'.

Yes, if they are currently doing something to bother you.

Rarely. Mexicans prefer other slang terms for annoyance.

Almost never. It's inherently about frustration.

Me dio por saco (It annoyed me) or Me daba por saco (It used to annoy me).

Not really, but you can say 'un por saco' to mean 'a nuisance', though it's rare.
