I was reading the comic strip "A Bordo" and one dog says to another: ¿Alguna chispa, Loui? "No realmente", the other answers. "¿En las cosas importantes? Demasiadas diferencias.
Does chispa mean spark in this example? Gracias de antemano por ayuda. Alberto

Chispa is spark, both literally and figuratively: a witty remark, etc.

Gracias sprachliebhaber, I already knew that. I just didn't see how it fit into the sentence I gave. Alberto

I think it fits: "No wisecrack, Louie?" or something along that line.

Chispa es spark, pero en tu contexto me da la impresión de que más bien se refiere a que es la forma coloquial de referirse a una idea, de modo que le estaría preguntando, ¿alguna idea, Loui?

Revisa si cuadra con el contexto.

Saludos.
