    Oprimir is most often used for ‘press/ enter/ print’,

    Also, can you people stop whitewashing the Spanish. Swear the S*aniard PR game is unmatched among former imperial powers

      This is just referring to Spanish as a language, I instinctively assumed this phrase originated in Latin America

      it probably depends on the dialect but oprimir is mostly used for opress in latin america. i have seen the press meaning only on spainard dialect, not sure if there are more

        Depends in the context, but opress is the most direct translation of oprimir

        Press is presionar

        In Spain it also litery means “to oppress”. I would say it is common in most Spanish dialects if not all, not 100% sure tho.

      Sorry that wasn’t my intention, I know how bad Spain is/has been historically I just thought the phrase was funny.
