Como diriamos "postureo" en inglés?

Judit Godall 4 respuestas
Hello there! I'd like to use "postureo", in English, we say "postureo" when someone does someting just because it's fashionable, just to look good to the others. For example, I took a picture of myself in a buddha temple pretending I was meditating, so this was just "postureo". Thanks in advance teachers crew! :)

The closest verb is 'to pose' but the plain meaning is 'posar' (for a photo, painting, etc.) To convey the idea that it's just being done for appearances, you could use the colloquial expression 'to be a poser': "He's such a poser, he only wants to look good for his Instagram." You normally wouldn't call yourself 'a poser'.

I would just say something like "He/ She is a poser" or "He or she is posing" ;)

As my colleagues wrote before, 'to be a poser' / 'posing'. Hope you get to use it sometime :-)
