"זה היה פיצוץ!"

Translation: It was a blast!

[Noas44]

It could be both, but I think they meant explosion

[langaugeartist]

Is this "blast" as in fun, explosion, or both?

[radagastthebrown]

It means an explosion, and can also mean fun or great in slang (but it sounds a bit old to me).

[joelnaqqar]

Is it true that they use pitsuts in slang for an attractive person? And if yes, both boy and girl or just one of them?

[radagastthebrown]

No, but פצצה (ptsatsa, bomb) is used (for girls only).

[Shira139938]

It's not true. It can be used also for boys, like- הוא נראה פצצה

[radagastthebrown]

As Wiktionary says, there are two slang uses for פצצה, one is 'attractive' and the other 'great'.

So הוא נראה פצצה simply means he looks great; the same way you can say הבית נראה פצצה. On the other hand, פצצה בלונדינית for example could not refer to a handsome man, only to an attractive blond woman.

[Hadassah277241]

Explosion? Fun? The fun meaning is a bit old? To whom? I think we still say it here. But maybe we don't. I'm so old I don't even know.

[MrsT637020]

How do you say, " There was an explosion!"

[radagastthebrown]

Either היה פיצוץ or התרחש פיצוץ. The problem with היה פיצוץ is that it could mean "it was a blast" too.

[buletule]

I answered "There was an explosion." and it was marked as wrong. Is it really incorrect?

[pnemonic]

there = שם
