Spanish term or phrase: "Tontos del culo" / "Gillipollas"·
Dans les deux cas, je le traduirais par :

"Connards"

J'aimerais cependant savoir s'il y a une nuance entre les deux expressions, et quelle est la plus forte (vulgaire) des deux ...
La traduction "littérale" ne m'aide pas beaucoup...
Merci de me donner n équivalent aux deux expressions...

"Trou du c.." / connard"
Explanation:
Il me paraît qu'il s'agit de "gilipollas", un con, connard.

Trou du cul: Imbécile, homme incapable (Dictionnaire de la langue verte d'Alfred DELVAU ). Plus vulgaire que "gilipollas" et très convenable pour parler d'"un tonto del culo".
