@iandu76,
I actually understand this from the other side.
I speak Spanish as a second language and spend quite a bit of time in Mexico. My Spanish is almost fluent, but there are times when I am not sure how to convey the exact feeling I want to express.
There are things that are very easy to express in English that are difficult in Spanish. In English say "I am looking forward to ..... " quite a bit. I will tell someone "I am looking forward to seeing you again", or "I am really looking forward to your party." This has a very specific emotional meaning in English... it signifies something I expect will make me happy, and I use it to make the other person feel good.
There is no idiom to convey the same feeling in Spanish... this is something I feel is missing
I am sure that this is true in any two languages; things that are easy to say in one language are difficult in another.
