Madid & some spanish words
Hi
I found it a very interesting Madrid info. Info madrid times All the words (at the end of the article) are slang but of very common use here. The phonetics are funny: THE GLOSSARY What they never taught you in Spanish 101. Guay (gwhy) Cool. Cojonudo (ko-ho-NOO-doh) Better than cool. Me mola (may MO-la) Love it! Alucino (ah-lu-THEE-no) Can't believe it! Paso (PAH-so) Couldn't care less. Juerguista (hwer-GHEE-stah) Party animal. Cutre (KOO-tray) Seedy, lacking class. Sometimes used affectionately, as in, “Sometimes the most cutre places serve the best tapas.” Ligar (lee-GAR) To pick up someone. Hortera (or-TER-ah) Flashy, tacky, kitschy. Fashion (FASH-yohn) Trendy, obsessed with the latest. Used as an adjective, not necessarily related to clothing, as in, “The people who hang out in Chueca are really fashion.” Gente guapa (HEN-tay GWA-pah) Beautiful people. Pijo (PEE-ho) A posh and conservative type, as in, “That party at the golf club was crawling with pijos.” saludos |
