意思
To need to do something quickly.
文化背景
In Spain, despite the stereotype of 'siesta', people in cities like Madrid use 'tener prisa' constantly. However, being 5-10 minutes late is often socially acceptable, so 'tener prisa' is sometimes used as an apology for being only slightly late. In Mexico, you might hear 'ahorita' used when someone has 'prisa'. Ironically, 'ahorita' can mean anything from 'right now' to 'never', so 'tengo prisa' is used to clarify that you really do mean 'right now'. Argentines often use 'estar apurado' interchangeably with 'tener prisa'. In the fast-paced life of Buenos Aires, 'tener prisa' is a common justification for the 'porteño' (local) tendency to walk and talk quickly.
The 'Tener' Rule
Remember that Spanish uses 'Tener' for many internal states like hunger (tener hambre), thirst (tener sed), and age (tener años). Add 'prisa' to that list!
Avoid 'Muy'
Never say 'muy prisa'. It sounds like saying 'very hunger' in English. Use 'mucha'.
