Notas

"Aquí está el notas que te dije."

It's from the movie "Cell 211. Is it a spy or something?

Are you sure that's the sentence?

With some punctuation to make sense, this might be "Aquí está él. ¿Notas? ¿Qué te dije?" (Here he is. See? What did I say?)
I'm sorry, I can't provide a better proposal.

I have to watch the movie with subtitles because I merely understand half of it. They talk way too fast and mumble.

I would guess that this is a mistake in the subtitles. Do you have a clip somewhere where we can hear the audio?

I suppose "el notas" could be some guy's nickname, but it's not too likely.

No, no está errado. Es jerga española. Aquí decimos "el nota" (que yo sepa nunca lleva "s", tampoco me extraña porque en el norte tienden a marcarlas en exceso) como sinónimo de "tío", "tipo", "tipejo", "menda", "fulano", etc. En otras palabras, lo utilizamos de una forma similar al guy inglés.


Un saludo a todos.
