Great idea Jackson cause my spanish sucks. I'll start the ball rolling and I hope/pray and encourage my fellow mongers to build this section up (for my own good).
Here is the extent of my baby-talk spanish that I use to navigate (somewhat successfully) in the club scene:
Te Quiero para siempre.
(I will love/want you forever)
Tu eres muy bonita.
(you are very pretty)
Tu eres muy joven.
(you are very young)
Tu eres muy elegante.
(You are very elegant)
My favorite to shoo pesky chicas:
Yo estoy mirando ahora mismo
(I am just looking right now.)
Vamanos ahora mismo a mi hotel.
(Let's go to my hotel right now.)
De donde eres?
(Where are you from?)
Yo quiero bailar contigo
(I want to dance with you)
Yo necesito una mujer como tu en mi vida.
(I need a woman like you in my life.
Yo necesito una mujer como tu para siempre.
(I need a woman like you forever)
Yo necesito una mujer como tu para toda la noche!
(I need a woman like all night)
Yo estoy muy cansado.
(I am very tired)
Yo estoy muy pobre.
(I am very poor!)
Tu eres loca.
(you are crazy)
Tu tienes uno esposo?
(Do you have a husband.)
(FORGIVE ANY MISSPELLINGS OR LACK OR ACCENTS OR MISTAKES!)

Here are a few of my favorites:
In a boliche, while bargaining:
After she looks you in the eyes and says she wants 300dollars for an hour:
No, en serio
(no, seriously)
Es un chiste, no?
(That's a joke, right?)
No deseo su precio por la semana , solamente por la hora
(No, not the price for a week, just an hour)....this will [CodeWord140] (http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord140) them off, use only when you are ready to dump them when it appears they are holding firm to a high price.
Eres muy bonita, pero pago 150pesos Argentinos y nada mas. Si o no?
(You are very pretty, but I pay 150 pesos and nothing more. Yes or no).
In the room:
Mueve su trasero nena
(Move your ass, baby!)
?Quien es su popi?
(Who is your daddy)
Mas fuerte/despachio
(Harder!/Slower)
Cojeme mamacita, cojeme
(fuck me mama, fuck me)
Well, if you want Argentine Spanish phrases, anything that contains "tu" as the object pronoun ain't gonna cut it, with all respect to LA Larry.
How about"
¿Vos tenés esposo? (indefinite article not used; in fact, just "¿Tenés esposo? is also correct)
Vos erés loca
Necesito una mujer como vos
And so forth.
Thanks Dickhead and Me Gusta.
Let's keep the ball rolling.
Yo quiero su cola.
(I want your ass)
Dame un beso.
(Give me a kiss).
(dejema solo)
Leave me alone
Yo quiero dormir
(i want to sleep)
WHAT'S THE WORD FOR PUSSY?
In Domincan spanish, you can say,
Yo quiero comer su "chocha" or "crica"
(I want to eat your pussy)

Some corrections.
1) Try to use the casual 2nd person when talking to a chica instead of the formal 2nd person. Also, many times it isn't necessary to mention the 1st person pronoun (yo) since it is implied in the verb tense.
"Quiero tu cola" (or better "Dame la cola")
"Quiero dormir"
"Sos muy linda" (linda is more used than bonita)
"No deseo tu precio por una semana, solamente por una hora"
"Sos muy linda, pero pago 150 pesos y nada mas. Si o no?"
"Mové tu culo, nena"
2) Spelling:
"Dejame solo"
"Vos sos loca" (eres goes with tú, sos goes with vos)
"Quién es tu papi?"
"Despacio".
"Tenés esposo?"
"Soy muy pobre"
3) Pussy is "concha" in Argentina.
Better to say "Quiero chuparte la concha"
4) Mamacita is too Caribbean for Buenos Aires. Mamita may be better.
Andres
Thanks Andres!
(PS. I've really enjoyed reading your many posts)
Regarding vos -
What is the regular ending with vos
for -ar, er, ir verbs?
Is there a list of the irregular verbs with vos published somewhere on the net?
Thanks

"Vos" is the familiar form taught as "tu" in most places. Since I was taught that way in school, I instinctively speak with the "tu" form unless I stop to think about it. Nobody in Argentina has ever failed to understand what I'm saying. Don't sweat it.
-Uncle Otto
Once again,
Would someone who speaks spanish
please comment about the vos forms below.
Thanks.

Vos conjugation
It usually uses the Spaniard 2nd person of the plural "Vosotros" taking out the "i"
Examples:
- Verb with ar: Vosotros amais -> vos amás
- Verb with er: Vosotros correis -> vos corrés
- Verb with ir: Vosotros descubrís -> vos descubrís (the same)
Remember: for 2nd person of the plural you use "ustedes" plus the conjugation of the 3rd person of the plural:
Example:
Ellos dicen -> Ustedes dicen
Hope this helps,
Andres
Andres,
Thank you very much.

Hey Everybody--
I think it would be very helpful to post the correct way to "request" a chica over the phone and ensure we don't get sent a different one.
When I do it, I probably sound like a fumbling gringo. But it would be great to know how to say in Argentinian spanish this phrase:
"I want to see the girl named X whose photograph is on Playtynum? Is this exact girl available?"
Thanks!!!
Member #4211

LA Larry
"Quiero a la chica que se llama X en Platynum? Está ella disponible? Tiene que ser la misma chica de las fotos."
However, take into account that pimps and madams blatantly lie in order to get your money ASAP. They will show you a fake X and say "she is the girl whose pictures we posted at Platynum".

This is a great section. It's amazing at the differences in Spanish from just a few countries away. Andres, thanks for all the good tutoring!
You don't find many guide books that tell you the right way to ask to DATY!
ANDRES, I'm surprised you didn't pick up on and correct Dickhead's mistake when he talked about "Vos erés loca".....in Argentina, eres is changed to "sos" as in "vos sos loca" or "vos sos una chica de ensueño" or "sos un boludo" or "sos un pelotudo" as the Argentinians are fond of saying. "Sos una dulzura", "sos un amor" but NEVER "erés".
You also really don't have to change your way of speaking in BA if you're used to using "tu" since across Argentina everybody will understand you if you speak Continental Spanish, there's no doubt about this.
Finalmente, you don't need to say "vos" if you're saying "sos", it's understood that "sos" refers to "vos" just as you don't have to say "Tu" in front of "eres" if you're speaking non-Rio Platense español. For instance, "Eres un idiota" is perfectly acceptable and understood without saying "Tu eres un idiota".
Sos una poronga, Dickhead. DownBA
PS "Chupame la poronga" - "Suck my dick", "Chupame el orto" - "suck my ass". Great stuff!!!

I know, DownBA, but I cannot correct every single error.
Just LOVE this new server already Jackson, I was growing wrinkles waiting for the screnes to change of late!
Just one more tidbit that can come in really handly that I just love:
"Haceme caso chica!" - "Do as I say girl!"....say this as you grab her by the pony tails and...you guys fill in the blanks!!
DownBA
Actually, Andrés did point out that sos goes with vos and eres (not erés) goes with tú. My bad. I wonder why no one has ever corrected me on that. Probably because I normally do not use the pronoun since it is implied, and they just thought I was mispronouncing eres (which I was) and not using el voseo.
It will never happen again, I guarantee. Thanks, Andrés.
Dickhead, you're right, I see earlier on Andres did give a lesson on vos sos, etc. Just trying to help you be a better Porteño trucho as I'm always trying to be a better Argentino trucho....goes a long way with the ladies if you speak their dialect.
Sos un buen Argentino trucho Dickhead! DownBA
Lesson 1, B.S. 101 in Spanish
Andres or any other Spanish speaking mongers to the rescue, please! Let’s collaboratively translate these few sentences. I promise, I will put them to good use.
You are one of the most charming and sensual girls I have been with in such a long time.
What I like about you is that your emotions are real. (O.K. Shall I pass you the bucket yet?)
You are so charming that I lost track of time,
Let me kiss your wonderful lips…[6 seconds later]… I just KNEW you would feel as good as this.
I hope you feel comfortable if
a) You give me a B.J. without a condom….or…..
b) I DATY you…..You taste wonderful… (O.K. guys, this one was for my “friend”-LOL)
[24 seconds later]
I think it would be beautiful to see you get on top (Cowgirl)
Could you now turn around (Trying to get her into reverse Cow Girl)
Making love to you is so special…I want to go on like this for the rest of the night [yeah, right…]
[18 seconds later]
Slow down, please. I want our time to last.
[Sadly, only 12 seconds later…]
My dear, you made me cum so quickly!
[Dragging it out…and being Optimistic…]
Don’t worry; it will get up again, soon.
[To be continued… or so I hope!]
For any potential extra mileage I may receive as a result, I am indebted to you for your help in this translation.

Let's see
Sos una de las chicas más agradables y sensuales con la que haya estado en mucho tiempo.
Lo que me gusta de vos es que tus emociones son reales (that's really BS).
Sos tan agradable que perdí la noción del tiempo.
Espero que te sientas cómoda si
a) me la chupás sin forro.
b) yo te chupo la concha... tenés muy buen gusto
Estaría muy bueno que vos vengas arriba mío
Podés darte vuelta?
Hacerte el amor es tan especial... me gustaría seguir así toda la noche.
Más lento, por favor. Quiero que esto dure.
Querida, me hacés venir tan rápido.
No te preocupes, se me va a volver a despertar pronto.
O.K. guys. Sexplorer hates to be just a “taker”, so I really busted my chops on this one, trying to translate. However, please do not take me too literally as my Spanish is only limited to the “Living Language” basic course, and thus I think we are going to need at least some corrections to this.
Hola! Quisiero hablar a Maria.(Hello, I would like to talk to Maria)
Bueno, Maria. Soy "Sexplorer". Veía tu aviso en Platynum. Parecis muy agreabla! (O.K., Maria. I’m "Sexplorer". I saw your ad in Platynum. You look nice!)
[rapid succession of words on Maria's part, leaving Sexplorer to wonder why the heck he didn’t have Roxana do this for him…]
Quisiero que visitarte. Cuánto pedís para unas horas? (I would like to visit you. How much are you asking for a few hours?)
[assuming that the price is right, and that Sexplorer's feeble attempt at lingual independence has yet to trigger a gringo pricing reaction by the chica….]
Bueno. Dondé vamos a vernos? (Well, where are we going to see each other?)
Diceme tu addressa, por favor. (Tell me your address, please.). [Rapid succession of words again, Sexplorer kicking himself again….] Pero... No tan rapidamente, por favor! (But, ... Not so fast, please)
Que se escribe a tu (door buzzer… [I need help with this one]). (What does your doorbell say?)
Voy a tartar estar en punto. (I’m going to try to be on time). Si no soy allí en punto, soy tal vez perdido. Aqui es mi numero de telefono movil: (If I’m not there on time, I’m probably lost. Here’s my mobil phone#)
Boy, that was tough! Talking on the phone in a foreign language is always stressful for me; in fact, so much so that it seriously brings my subsequent ability to perform under question. That’s why during my last trip I never called any of the apartments… I just showed up!
As stubborn as I am, I still think I 'll have Roxana handle this for me! However, it is still good to know the above as I doubt she offers emergency "on call" coverage for 3 O'clock in the morning.
By the way, guys: I found the "living Language" series of tapes and Books very useful. I use the tapes in my car, and after I get home I read over the text. I learned a little Spanish that way, as well as some French.
Incidentally, while typing the last conversation I wanted to say "Man! not so fast!", but noticed that the word H O M B R E! was stricken out by the forum software. I thought that it simply means "Man!". Am I missing something? Does it have a derogatory conotation?
Note to Jackson: I thought it was important I ask this, and did not mean to circumvent your software. I'll remove it soon if indeed it is a disallowed word.

Jackson,
Great idea for a topic! Although I lack the means to visit BA anytime soon, these words and phrases are helpful. An observation, if I may. A number of Argentinian women I know here in the U.S. have told me that the "vos" form marks a foreign speaker as one who enjoys, knows and respects the culture of Argentina. But, unless you've grown up in BA, don't count on ever being mistaken for a local! In other words, they'll know that you're from out-of-town the moment you open la boca. If you've grown up using the "tu" form, as I have, then don't worry about "vos" if it's uncomfortable for you. You'll be understood. Another point: I don't know who posted this a couple months ago, but someone wrote that "Quiero comer tu chocha/quiero comer tu crica" was acceptable in the DR ("I want to eat your pus*y." In Puerto Rico, either phrase might cause a sudden and unpleasant end to any encounter. Watch your idioms! "Verga" is acceptable in Mexico for "cock," but might be considered very rude or worse, untranslatable in other places. Study, buddy!
BL
Okay, so if you want your steak done rare, you should say, "Quiero mi bife vuelta y vuelta."
What about medium or well-done? (Would it be? --> 'Quiero mi bife al medio o bien hecho.')
Juas !!!!, this is amazing, really i did see before this topic jejeje.....
But the thing is that the no spanish people, has his accent, to diferent, and if the girl talk with slang, the visitor, may be fell loos.
The best thinh (I think that ), is try to stay with a girl that speaks spanish and to get be a friend from her (less that you speck spanish).
Some time, the spanish that you can learn with books, cassettes, or whatever, not is the wat that use the Argentinian escorts.
BTW, if some one has a question about some sentence, ask to some people that can understand both languages.
Is to different the concenpst that can lear in a course of spanish that can use on the street.
Be happy and good fuck's :)
I wonder if any local Argentinean guys out there would mind helping me out with the translation of "Te Quiero mucho"?
This one has always baffled me, I have been told it, and replied with it for years now whilst never actually being exactly sure if it means - "I love you a lot" or simply "I want you a lot" or if it means something entirely different altogether that does not translate directly to English.
Thanks for all the information you have provided in the WSG forums guys, take care and have fun.
El Centro
El Centro, if you don't mind a little input from a non-Argentinian guy that speaks pretty good Spanish and knows a lot of "regular" Argentinian girls that I'm just friends with as well as knowing plenty of pros and semi-pros that I've have sex with, here goes: "Te quiero mucho" is also said between males and females that aren't necessarily having a sexual or romantic relationship. For instance, a good, good friend of mine from Argentina's girlfriend Maria tells me and writes me "Te quiero mucho" so here it's being used to sign off letters and emails the way we say, "Love, Danny" even though we may not literally love the person we're saying it to. Then on the other side of the coin, chicas that I have had sex with are constantly saying in their emails, "Te quiero muchooooooooooo". So I hope this doesn't confuse you that much more. DownBA
Hahahahaha!
I couldn't stop laughing after reading Andres' message below, dated 03-22-04. How can anybody possibly use that picked-from-a-cheap-corny-romantic-novel language while "making love" with a "sex worker"? Seriously guys, just picturing anybody addressing a "professional lover" that way is enough to make me rip with laughter!
Keep'em good jokes rollin', Andres, you mean devil! You made my day!

The real deal is "te amo", I loooove you, one big step above "te quiero". Actually the chicas LOVE some romantic language and many will be very responsive. I once gave a hardened bar girl a cheap book of Neruda love poems for her birthday, and now, 4 yrs later she throws her arms around me and offers a freebie whenever she sees me! So I learned a bunch of mushy phrases from the soap operas, e.g. "vos sos la luz de mi vida"--- You are the light of my life (said with a half-joking smile) and fuck me but they LOVE that shit. Go figure!
Andres:
My apologies! I didn't mean to offend you or any of the posters. Since I'm a Spaniard, my attention was taken by your message in Spanish and I didn't notice it was just a translation (and a very good one, by the way) of Sexplorer's post. I honestly thought you were writing your message as a joke, it sounded so out of context (the context being screwing an Argentinian ****). I must also admit that coming from Spain, Argentina's Spanish sounds a bit odd for me.
So Andres, I hope there's no hard feelings!
And Sexplorer, try these lines with your next Argentinian cutie:
"Mamasa, con ese culo veni a cagar en casa"
"Dame una sola razón para que no tenga que violarte"
"Te voy a poner una naranja en la boca y te voy a chupar la concha hasta que salga fanta"
"Tenés cara de solitaria, en que intestino te criaste?"
They're guaranteed to surprise your girlfriends. Now, THIS is the real stuff, Sexplorer. Good luck.
Yes, definitely feed them a lot of bullshit romantic phrases. It increases your mileage tremendously. But also yes, "te amo" is the real deal and to be avoided. But "mi amor" is fine. Go figure.
I feel sorry for Wilko. Treat a ho like a lady and a lady like a ho. Works every time.

Gentlemen,
My Spanish is still weak, indeed it contains a mixture of the European, Argentinean as well as Mexican Spanish. However I have to tell you that even with my broken and mixed up Spanish I use all the usual and sometimes corny lines with every chica.
This method works a treat. My mongering has gone from economy to premier class by doing this. The sessions are better and as previously reported even the hardest of chicas has responded very well, making for a memorable few hours. Best thing all round.

Try this one when you see or hear something gross, or nasty. It is actually mexican but used quite a bit in Argentina.
Pronounced "walk-uh-la". Emphasis on the first syllable.
An instance I can think of would be when King Exon destroys Jackson's mattress. Dice. Ahhh amor que juaquala!. Por que no me dijiste estas en tus dias? Ruinemos la cama de mi amigo Jackson!

For the case of the mattress issue, we would say "quilombo" (in fact, it is the translation of "mess" or "complex issue", while also means "brothel"). I never heard of "wakula" in BA.
Qué quilombo = What a mess
We say also "arruinar" instead of "ruinar".
Hope this helps,
Andres

Oops, thanks Andres!
Just like at the Thanksgiving dinner, I am always in need of a Spanish lesson. My non pro amiga con driechas and her family and friends use the word wakula a lot. I have also heard it on the street. I realize you are from argentina Andres, but these people are of a much lower, very simple class, and watch a lot of mexican TV programs, hence the relocation of the word to some barrios in Baires.
Don't be shy Andres, keep us Gringos in line!
Thanks.

Sorry fellows, Wilko's posts escaped me while I was in Russia feeding the same (very) corny phrases to Moscow line up girls. Guess what? This B.S. definitely works, even when it's translated into Russian!
Thank you professor Andres, and please know everyone appreciates your help. I will post some more questions for your review before my next trip in August. I'd be interested to hear a translation of Wilko's phrases, even though I have a feeling I will NOT be using them anytime soon.

Can someone help me with the Spanish phrase to describe the 69 position? Ha! - I've had problems with that one and received some pretty confused looks from chicas when I asked for "sesenta-nueve"!

Can anyone list about a dozen different ways in Spanish to say goodbye in a letter or email? I am tired of having to say the same old "Te quiero mucho."
I'm not about to say "Te amo," but I am looking for more intimate phrases than adios or hasta luego. Any phrases with sexual connotations are certainly welcome.
Gracias!
DB
Bulldog,
Argentinian men and women sign off to each other in the following ways: (but Te quiero seems to remain high on the list too)
-Te mando un besito
-Te mando un beso grande
-Te mando un besote
-Te mando un beso grandote
-Un beso
-Un besito
-Besos
-Besos y abrazos
These are all good if you don't want to use "te quiero".
Also, in case you're interested and you develop any frienships with Argentinian men, like if I were writing Andres from the board I'd sign off my email to him with the very standard Argentinian sign-off "Un abrazo" or "Te mando un abrazo" or "Un fuerte abrazo" or some variant of the "abrazo" thing. Argentinians are big into "abrazos". Hope this is useful info guys. DownBA (who's still unfortunately UpNorth)
Member #4211
07-20-04, 19:37
Salutations formulae:
I use "besos" when dealing with female friends, and "un abrazo" with male friends.
When dealing with an acquaintance (or a not-that-close friend), I use "saludos" (cheers), also useful for casual business or as a default salutation.
For more formal settings, I use:
"Gracias por su consideración.
Atentamente,"
That should suffice.
Hope this helps,
Andres
Professor Andres ;):
In light of recent discussions in the 2004 section in regards to the "cycle", I would appreciate your input.
What would be a tactful way of asking the girls if they are anywhere near their "cycle"? I'm sure you can understand the significance of this, if DATY is to be considered in any way.
Many thanks.

Sexplorer:
A subtle way to ask may be "Estás en uno de esos días especiales del mes?" (Are you into one of those special days of the month?)
She should understand.
Hope this helps,
Andres
Or more simply: "Tienes menstracion?" It's polite and clear.
It's "menstruación." Also here in BA you should use "tenés" in place of "tienes."
Thanks, DH, I stand corrected. It's hard for me to get used to the Castillano Spanish, which is quite different from standard Spanish. I understand they don't even use "tu," but rather "vos," right? I'm hoping to take a course in BA when I can spend enough time there, since I plan on relocating there permanently in the not-too-distant future.
That's correct. "El voseo" is pretty simple, though. Drop the "r" from the end of the infinitive, replace with "s," and stress the last syllable:
tu tienes = vos tenés
tu comes = vos comés
tu sigues = vos seguís
and so forth. For the verb "ser," use "sos'
tu eres = vos sos.
The other major difference is in the command tenses, familiar form. The stress changes to one syllable later in the word:
"Call me" in México is llámame but in BA it becomes llamame with the stress on the penultimate syllable: llaMAme. This changes whether you do or do not use an accent, of course.
And y and ll are "zh" (except when y is the last letter) so really "call me" becomes "zhaMAme."
Also command-wise, in the familiar form you just drop the s off the end of the word: come = vení; keep going = seguí and so forth.
DH,
Your command of Argentine spanish is impressive. Your new profession could become a linguist to all of us mongers that travel to BsAs.
I can see it now. One night after a dinner at the Mansion (or another place) we all go to a classroom where teacher DH instructs us on how better to communicate and negotiate sex with chicas, then our homework would be to go to the clubs and practice.
That would be one homework assignment I might actually do AND enjoy!
Stowe
DH, your lesson/translations did not print out right. Can you explain it another way?
Good job, senor Dickhead. Personally though I learn a lot more Spanish for a nice young chica in bed as this is one class, I actually pay very close attention in. ;)

Andres and Dickhead,
I always heard that another way of speaking of the red tide as " mis dias". entonces, te puedes preguntar a la chica. "Estas en tus dias?", and that I have heard, is universal in all of the latin countries. Opinions, or experiences?

What is the ESTAR form for Vos? estas?
Chupa, it would be "vos estas", same as if you were using "tu", the argentines don't change the "estas" part when using "estar", "vos estas equivocado" for example, "you are wrong". Hope this helps, DownBA
Unfortunately, I'm begining to think that the "red" discussion is almost moot. "Tenés menstruación", "Estás en uno de esos días especiales del mes?" , or "Estás en tus dias?", sadly, no matter how you ask it, they still lie :(. I had another one of those, unfortunately with my favorite girl. DATY went uneventful, but at the end of the main course there was a pink tinge on the condom, and again I noted the not so discretely applied pantyliner.
The best "red alert", IMHO, is to first look at the panties to see if there is a pantyliner present. Now, THAT doesn't lie.
Sexplorer
Regarding how to ask a girl if she's having her period, you can also say "estas indispuesta?" and she'll understand your question perfectly. This is a very polite way of asking the question. Hope this helps, DownBA
Down BA is absolutely right. In fact, this is the only term I have heard in all my trips. This trip, I approached a girl in Rio Cabaña and she immediately told me "indispuesta". I was so familiar with the term that I asked her right away about how many more days she will be unavailable. She told me that she will be able to resume her "job" after two more days. I played safe and got her on the fourth day.
Bandy
A very useful typical Argentinian word I learned during this trip is "Dale" (pronounced as Dah-leh). It is basically used as an affirmative response to an agreement (instead of "si" or "bien"). However, its use is very typical and you got to learn when to use it. After hearing "Dale" for almost all the time for 5 days, (especially during fixing appointment with Internet chicas), I finally asked somebody for its correct use. Towards the end of my trip, I was using it at my heart's content and getting very positive feedback. The local people use it all the time. Another word "Barbero" is also very similar (not sure about the spelling).
Andres or anybody...comments!

Dale (DAH-lay) could also be translated as "Let's do it" or "Go for it."
The correct spelling is bárbaro. That translates as "great" or "cool" or "awesome." Note that it means the exact opposite most other Spanish speaking places. My dictionary translates it as "barbarous, cruel, rough, uncouth."
DH
Thanks. I knew I am messing up the spelling of "bárbaro". Live and learn everyday. This particular thread is very helpful.

Sure you are not talking about "vale" meaning sure, OK, alright? Used extensively in Spain but very little in Mexico.
Never heard dale. What is the root word? Daler? I want Andres opinion . . .
Cheers, -P
Nope, dale. It is from the verb "dar" or "to give." I've never heard it outside of Buenos Aires. They can't go five minutes without saying it. Like I told Salomé from Guemes that next time I would have her to my apartment. "Dale." I told the gata salvaje I would call her in a few days. "Dale." And so forth.
My bigger dictionary, which is British, translates it as "There you go again!"
DH,
You will be surprised. When I was in Calafate, the desk clerk was using it almost every 10 seconds. I finally had a long talk with her. She told me that it is a typical Argentinian word used extensively on a daily basis. In fact, there was very little use of 'ta bien. I thought the word was important enough (for people like us who travel to Argentina very often) to bring it to everyone's attention.

Dale
Dale literally means "give it". It is employed to mean:
- Approval (such as "OK")
- Surprise (such as "come on")
- Order to stop (such as "stop bothering", "drop it", start with it)
- Cheer a sport team (Dale Argentina! = Go ahead, Argentina!)
That is, a wildcard word.
Hope this helps,
Andres

DH,
As a side note, I believe in Spain they say "vale" which means "okay" according to my Spanish textbook. I've also noticed the most common way "dale" is used in B.A. seems to indicate casual agreement, but I'm no linguist, just a gringo... In fact, in conversations with my now ex-novia, anytime I said "dale" she'd chuckle and say, "Oh, you're sooooooooo Argentinian", but in Castellano of course.
-Hap
In Spain, vale means "ok", and is used in exactly the same myriad ways. As Andres points out in Argentina, in Spain, vale is used as a general catch all... Vale,vale = ok, ok (drop it, enough already, agreement, or resignation.)
Again, in Spain, dale means "give it to him" or "sock it to them" depending on the context. Used alone it is almost always an admonishment to action (give all you have got.)
Of late, it has become hip in some circles to say "o-kay" which I find annoying as there is a perfectly good word to use in castellano. Such is life.
A question to the group. One of the most amusing things I have heard in Spain is a general phrase of approval for a woman after she has done or accomplished something extraordinary or is held in particular esteem.. "Ole tu coño." Literally "Yeah for your c*nt." This is used even in polite but earthy company, and is always a compliment. To my knowledge, there is no comparable phrase for men. Anything like that in Argentina?
Cheers,
Sporadic
Re "dale" and affirmation thing, another affirmation that's used all the time at least in Tucuman province is "tal cual". My friend says "tal cual" all the time when he's agreeing with my point. I've also heard this said in Buenos Aires.
Dale is also used as if to say "go ahead" for instance if I were to say, "may I tell you something?", the answer very likely would be "dale" or if I asked a girl if I could give her a good "chupadita de concha" she very likely would answer me with "dale" as if to say, "bring it on baby".
Hope this helps, DownBA
To get off on a slight tangent, is "concha" the Argeninian word for dick? In Cuba and other countries it's "pinga."
What about the word "conyo (conjo?)" It's an expression in some latin countries which means many things. Literally it means pussy but it isn't used that way. It's kind of used the way we use "fuck" and "shit" to mean anything from "Holy shit" to "It's fucking great to see you!" Is this used in Argentina?
Concha is pussy, not dick. It translates as "shell." Although, some here say choncha instead of concha. Coño translates as c u n t and is insulting when referring to a person. The most common word I hear used for dick here is "pita."
In southern Spain, coño (c*nt) and picha (dick) are a lower class form of address. People will refer to each other this way with no malice at all. Coño is also an all-purpose adjective (like the f-word in english) "¿Que de coña estas deciendo?" (What the f*ck are you saying?)
The Spanish equivalent to concha would be cho-cho, or conejita (little rabbit.)
Cheers

- Concha is also used to say things like "holy sh*t" (e.g., "La concha de la lora!")
- It's not "pita", is "pija". Pita is a kind of Arab bread.
Hope this helps,
Andres
This is getting interesting; in Spain "pito" is sometimes used to describe the penis when addressing young children, or a whistle, or even a cigarette. "Pija" is a stuck up rich girl, like wise "pijo" for being or acting like a stuck-up rich person in general.
Now if that does not muddy the waters, nothing will. ;)
Andres
An ex-favorita used to say "Mi concha is grande." Which literally is "my pussy is big" but it was stated as an idiom and didn't exactly make sense. What does it mean?
Yes, my British dictionary translates "pija" as spoiled or "posh." Grande sometimes means old or older person such as "mujer grande" and since I know Stormy likes to fuck senior citizens that is probably what she meant.
We've had this discussion before, but the pronunciation of many words seems to be a class issue. I'm pretty sure a lot of these girls are saying pita and not pija, just like they say sepso instead of sexo and choncha instead of concha. I just talked to the doorman in my building about pussy and he says pita, or other times it seems to come out sounding almost like pica.
Another word they use differently is pendeja. Here it just means a young girl like 14 or 15 whereas in México it is an insult. My dictionary translates it as "coward" but I have never heard it used in that context.
My Oxford dictionary defines "pendejo/a" as "dumb" or "dummy." It is also used often to mean "bullshit." For ex., "Esta hablando pendajas!" I don't think I'd use it to refer to a young girl.
Member #4211
09-11-04, 17:59
"Mi concha es grande"
I guess that she meant "my pussy is roomy" (that she can handle almost anything).
--------------------
"Pendejo/a'
Strictly speaking, in Argentina pendejo means pubic hair. Since pubic hair is small, it is also used to refer young people.
--------------------
Pendejada
It usually menas "childish issues". "Está hablando pendejadas" = he/she is speaking childish issues/stupid things.
Hope this helps,
Andres
Thanks Andres, I think you are right. And thanks to Dickhead for pointing out my proclivity for fucking senior citizens, being a senior citizen myself. The ex-favorita was only 27, but had been in the business a long time, so one could also say that her concha is very senior (grande) as well. She did use the term "h o m b r e grande" to refer to men of my certain age. She also pronounced the word pija as pica and "beso
pica" was a blow job, she did not use the verb "chupar" but did it admirably.
This is great stuff, guys. I'm studying spanish here in the US (with a cute portena tutor, no less) so I'll try "dale" and some of the tamer words on her. She already knows that I love BA. Since I'm in California, she doesn't use the Argentine accent (more of a mexican influence here) but I'm going to ask her to change that. I like hearing it, and I understand it as well as the softer mexican and central american accent.
Any other dichos that you can pass on would be appreciated.
Stormy
she did not use the verb "chupar" but did it admirably You may have discovered the true essence of effective communications here mate. Who cares how they say it, as long as it is well done! ;)
Andres or DH, is the verb "coger" to be avoided in Argentina? Thanks!
Well, it means FUCK so it is impolite in regular conversation but if your chica is saying COgeme she is probably not Porteña and if she is saying coGEme she probably is!
In Spain they use the verb coger to mean to grab a hold of something. Here they use "agarrar" for that.
Here if someone is "fucking with you" or "jerking you around" they may use the verb joder, which is used to mean FUCK in some parts of México and also used by Chicanos or whatever the politically correct term these days is, in New Mexico. Other places in México are more likely to use the verb chingar for FUCK.
At least that's been my experience.
Here's one of my favorites:
"partuza" means gang-bang or orgy in Buenos Aires. It's sometimes used, in a crude way, to mean a really crazy party or fun time.
One who throws a partuza is a "partuzero".
About this "coger" thing, to illustrate the point, a few years ago I was staying down the road from Estilo Nuevo Boliche, the year I discovered it for Dickhead and the rest of the BA mongers (I have to take the credit and if you look at all the NEB posts you'll see that my posts pre-date all others on this fine establishment), and I was talking about the differences in "coger" around the Spanish speaking world with the cutest little portena receptionist who told me the following story: one week there was a family from Madrid - where they use coger daily as an all purpose word, for instance "I'll catch you later" would be "Te cogo luego" - staying in the hotel and every day as they walked by reception they'd look at her and say "chau, te cogemos luego" whereupon the receptionist said she politely smiled and waved while she began to cringe inside!!!
Les cogo luego todos los cachondos que visitan a BA! Chau, DownBA
I have never heard Madrileños use "coger" like that, but I suppose it could happen. More common would be "veremos" (we will see you) or possibly "te recogeremos" (we will pick you up) but I doubt anyone would say this to a hotel receptionist.
Dickhead mentioned Joder, a wonderful, all-around F*ck replacement in Spain. Not very polite but very commonly used.
What you never here is "chingar" unless someone is imitating a Mexican, complete to accent.
And I used to marvel at the various forms of use in English.
Cheers,
Sporadic
Nos veremos luego, y no quiero ponerme cachondo con Uds. Mejor con las damas de la noche. ;)
Sporadic, it's true, Spaniards use "coger" the way Argentinians use "agarrar"...sort of an all purpose word like we use "catch"...as in "Voy a coger el omnibus" or "Voy a coger una pelicula" or "Te cogo luego"...as in "I'll catch you later".
Reason I know this is I learned most of my Spanish basics one summer, studying for 8 weeks in Madrid and I heard these things on a daily basis. And now I live in one of the most concentrated Spanish-speaking areas in the USA so I hear these differences all the time. Hope this helps, DownBA
Down BA,
Oh, I agree with you, I just personally have never heard anyone in Spain use the phrase "te cogo luego." I would admit it transliterates well with "catch you later" it is just that I have just never heard it.
Well, let me qualify that, when playing tag with tiny children, and they get tired of saying "te cogo, te cogo!" they may say "te cogo luego" or "mas tarde." ;)
Cheers,
Sporadic
Ps. I base my observations on the last 24 years living in Spain. I know nothing about the Latin America variety except from listening to tourists or immigrants. Indeed, the immigration folks tend to ask suspicious immigrants (who claim to have lived for a long time in Spain) what ladies underwear is called. If the answer is anything else but "bragas or bragitas" they know they are not from around these parts!
Sporadic, ok, maybe I'm mistaken about the "te cogo luego" thing but the story from the receptionist in the hotel on la Pampa in Belgrano was unmistakably about a Spanish family who kept telling this little BA knockout, "te cogemos luego". This is ingrained indelibly in my cerebro. I remember laughing about it with the little cutie. Maybe it's a regional Spanish thing....go figure, anyway as long as we agree on what we're saying to a Portena when we purposely tell her "te cogo luego" that's all that really matters in this forum, vale? Vamos a seguir adelante con la juerga Sporadic! DownBA
Gents,
I want to apologize if anyone took my attempt at being clever as a slam on DownBA. Not my intention at all.
DownBA, you may be right, even different areas of Madrid have their own little dialects, it very well could be.
I was not doubting what you heard, it may have been that the Spaniards were playing with words for effect. Coger is used in a sexual sense here as well.
The differences are immense, even surpassing the "Scotland meets Alabama" problem in English. Just to illustrate; in Spain, they actually use subtitles sometimes when an Argentine is speaking on TV.
At all events, I will shut up, and go away now.
Cheers,
Sporadic
An interesting phrase that changes from country to country is "I'm coming!" or "I'm going to come"
In most of Mexico I have heard venirse as in " Me vengo" which is much like US english . . . although you hear "spunk" more in Britain, at least for men. (Do women "spunk" in the UK?)
In Spain - at least in Barcelona, they use correrse = "Me corro!" which confused me greatly at first. When I heard "I'm running" I would tell her, "No te vayas, por favor!"
When I was in Argentina, I heard terminarse= "Me termino"
which really makes the most sense of all.
Is this the most common way to say it in BA? Since I hardly ever hear this phrase from women -in ANY language, I am not a great judge. (semi-joke)
Cheers, -P
I hear "terminar" used the most with "acabar" being the next most common. And I hear it a lot!! Especially from Araceli, Rosa María, Susana, and Sandra. All of those girls like to come multiple times per session. Day before yesterday I heard "La primera vez que terminamos juntos." Yum.
BTW I am using a tutor one day a week now so hopefully my Porteño Spanish will improve.
DH,
That is only true because you cheat and use battery-powered or electrical power tools!! (or a jewsharp . . .)
Which brings up another interesting term in Spanish. I call it a "vibrador", but I have 2 lady friends in Barcelona who call them "consoladores" which I find a rather cute and descriptive word. Kind of like calling it "my friend" in English.

To weigh in on a couple of different threads here:
While studying at the University of Granada in the southern province of Andalucia, we were taught that coger means "to catch," and was perfectly normal to say in Spain. However, the teacher warned us to be careful about who we said it to when we returned home, because of the meaning in Latin America.
In Buenos Aries, mi favorita rolled off of me and said "tuve mi coita" as way of explanation. A few minutes later she was ready to go shopping.
I told her "no tuve mi coita" and she knew to get back to work.
I don't find it in my dictionaries, and maybe it was her way of trying to communicate in bastard Spainglish for my gringo ears.
DB
Prokofiev;
I have 2 lady friends in Barcelona who call them "consoladores" which I find a rather cute and descriptive word.I can confirm the word all over Spain, not just BCN.
Kind of brings new meaning to "consolation prize."
About "terminando" and "acabando", here's an Argentinian jewel of an expression: "Estoy para echarte un gran polvo"! or "Quiero echarte un polvo" or "Me gustaria echarte un polvo".
Argentinians are big about "echando" y "tirando"...we see how much Portenos like to be "tirando basura en la calle". But most of all, Argentinians "le gustan echar un polvo". DownBA

Posters,
Thanks for all of your contributions. Please excuse this possibly lame question. How should a Buenos Aires monger inquire about the possibility of anal sex? E.G., the Spanish equivalent of something like, "I very much enjoy anal sex, is this possible?," or, "Do you provide anal sex?"
About anal, usually that´s what "completo" is SUPPOSED to mean. However, you can be more explicit and ask about "cola," or plain old "sexo anal."
Jetsetter, here's a way a Portena would clearly get your point: "quiero cogerte la colita" or "me permitas cogerte la colita?" or "quiero meterla en la colita". I'm sure any of those statements or questions will get you either a resounding yes or no and they'll leave no doubt about what you're after! DownBA
Member #4211
09-21-04, 13:35
Girls would understand better "hacer la colita" instead of "coger la colita". You should use "coger" mostly for people, not for body parts.
Also, you should say "estoy por echarte un gran polvo"
Hope this helps,
Andres
Andres, I'll bet you a steak dinner at the finest restaurant in BA that if you told 100 Portenas "quiero cogerte la colita" that you wouldn't find a single one that would show the least bit of misunderstanding.
In fact if you just said "la colita" there wouldn't be any misunderstanding either though it's possible you want to lick the colita instead of fucking it, so by clarifying your statement with "quiero cogerte la colita" I assure you that there won't be any misunderstanding among Portenas, in fact you will have clarified your intentions very nicely because, after all, someone else might be after "chupando la colita" which no portena would be able to misunderstand either. So in short Andres, you're splitting hairs here with me a little, counting how many angels fit on the head of a pin, etc. If you try just a little bit, Andres, I'm sure you'll find some better examples.
Member #4211
09-21-04, 15:25
DownBA:
Girls will understand "coger la colita", but "hacer al colita" is said over 90% of the time. That's why I'm mentioning it.
Andres
Andres, you're right that "quiero hacer la colita" is a very popular lumfardo expression but your original comment (take a look for yourself) was that the chicas would understand my expression less than yours and you know in your corazon of corazones that that's simply not true....there would simply be no misunderstanding of "quiero cogerte la colita", the chica would understand it as well as she'd understand "hola".
I'm really just trying to suggest that you not split hairs about our Spanish unless you see some gross abuse - which this example of mine is not a case of - since we don't split hairs about your English faux pas though we have ample opportunity. Enough said, I think. DownBA
One question regarding the few expressions below with "polvo":
How should I translate this word? The only translation that I am familiar with is polvo = dust or powder.
Based on the context of these expression, it looks like "polvo" should be "load", "jizz", or "cum", but that seems like an odd choice to pick the word for powder to be the slang word for this.
I appreciate the new expressions, but why are you posting them without English translations? They sort of lose their utility unless it is incredibly obvious what they mean.
Personally I appreciate it when a native born, multi lingual (not just bilingual), highly educated Porteño helps me to improve my rioplatense Spanish. I don't view it as splitting hairs.
But hey Andrés, in English we would never say "nice butts." :)
DH, I'm with you on being helped to improve your local dialect by a native such as Andres. I'm just opposed to Andres's comment seen in quotes below, since it's simply not true.
"Girls would understand better "hacer la colita" instead of "coger la colita".
Look, I'm never going to sound like Andres when I speak Castellano and neither are you, DH, any more than Andres is going to sound like us with his "butts" and other little faux pas and that's exactly the point: I undestand "butts" perfectly well to be "ass" so I'd never correct Andres on "butts" since it's perfectly understandable. Same with my "quiero cogerte la colita" exept in the case of "quiero cogerte la colita" not only is it totally understandable it's perfectly spelled and stated albeit not "lumfardo". Ok, so I don't speak much lumfardo but girls aren't going to understand me any better if I say "hacer la colita" instead of "coger la colita".
So in conclusion and this IS my last entry on this dead horse, fellas, (you guys can have it all you want since I'm officially done with this sorry quibble as of now) my point is I'm in favor of correcting the really bad stuff and not arguing over how many angels fit on the head of a pin. Does the old addage "there's more than one way to shoe a horse" ring true for ANYBODY out there?

Multi-level communication
I don't know how to define it, so I called it "multi-level" communication. Basically, it revolves around the multiple messages that you throw when you use a give phrase, specially one from slang (lunfardo).
In the previous case discussed, girls will perfectly understand "quiero coger la colita". But (and this is a very important "but") when you use the most common phrase ("quiero hacerte la colita") you are also saying "I know people here. I was so long around that I know how to play the hobby here and what to expect from girls. I am not a newbie, even if I pronounce differently or if I speak slow". It sets a completely different scenario, much more favorable to you.
That's the reason for pointing out such nuance.
Andres
"But hey Andrés, in English we would never say "nice butts."
Whenever I find myself with 2 or more ladies in bed, I often say - "Wow!, Nice Butts!"

Andres, now THAT'S a point well taken!!! Sorry for hassling you about this, I think I was having a bad day and you were the first one in my line of fire. Te pido me disculpes! DownBA

09-23-04, 13:56
Andres,
You must work in the diplomatic corpes. I was thinking that the hacerte phrase could/should make one sound a little more seasoned, after your explanation on body parts vs the person.
I still say "tu body part" at times as I don not want to have any confusion as to who's colita we are talking about after some of the earlier posts, even though I think I should be saying la/el.
Well put.

I'm never going to contradict Andres again guys, you have my solemn oath on that fellas.
But to answer Stormin Normin, the way I'd ask to be given head without a rubber and cum in the girls mouth with my very gringo-like, un-lumfardo castellano, I'd say something like, "quiero echarte un polvo en tu boca mientras me chupes sin globito" or "quiero que me chupes sin foro/preservativo (this is a monger's choice) y quiero echarte mi polvo/leche (another monger's choice) en tu boca", or some variant. I'm sure the chica's going to be thinking, "You sure don't sound like any Porteno I know with that sentence structure, GRINGO but I'm going to suck you and lick you for your dear life."
I've given up trying to sound like a real Porteno, I'm just tickled pink I can get my point across 99 percent of the time. DownBA

Just say, 'tragáme la leche!' as you are about to spurt she will get the message as well as a mouthful of muy buena leche.
Or if you want to give her fair warning, just before you spurt, make the following announcement: 'quiero llenarte la boca, amor'
pron. kyee-ro chenartay la boca
She will say, if you are lucky. 'dále nomás, hijo de puta'
(just do it, bastard)
and then comes the difficult part, you will feel obliged to ejaculate into her mouth.
Hope it goes ok

A funny story.
I was telling an Argentine friend that I know there are mines in Argentina. Like copper mines etc.
And I said what thought was ok in spanish."Yes I know...you can dig in the mines."
I later later found out that here they call a nice babe a "mina". and mina is also "mine" (As in copper). And to say dig is "cavar". But "acavar" means to finish and also can mean "to come" (as in ejaculate)
So I had said.
"Si, podes a cavar en las minas". Which sounded alot like "Yes, you can come in the hot babes!"
"I love this F***ing country!"

A friend of mine who is a Colombian native who teaches Spanish as a second language has a good, common sense suggestion on how to really accelerate your Spanish language learning and you can administer this with the minimalistic investment of a good Spanish-English dictionary.
The theory is that in our daily lives we typically don't use more than 100-200 different vocabulary words...SO, you start by taking inventory of these 100-200 words - write them down on a piece of paper - and start memorizing as many as you can by using cue cards or any other method you like.
As for verbs, one of my monger friends has an interesting theory on Spanish verbs that he claims works even if you dont' yet know how to conjugate them: he says that you should just say the verb in the "infinitive" form, i.e., if you wanted to eat you'd simply announce, "comer" and rest assured that a chica you're with will most definitely understand your intention. Same if you want to fuck, just announce, "coger" and you'll be communicating in Spanish and in most cases you'll get some correction from the native speaker. If you want to look for chicas, announce "buscar chicas" and so on and so on.
It shouldn't be that difficult for the average monger to achieve the attainable goal of memorizing 100 words in fairly short order and doing this will ensure the monger will have a better time communicating with the chicas.
Next, try like heck to speak to your BA bedmates no matter how poorly you speak since you're likely going to hear responses that you'll begin to remember after you hear enough repetition and you're also likely to receive some invaluable language lessons from your chica of the moment.
Lastly, my cardinal rule on Spanish language: carry a dictionary around with you, one of the small pocket ones, and as you search for a Spanish word to fit a situation, look it up right then and there and say it a few times aloud or in your head, learning these words contextually makes all the difference in the world and helps lock in the meanings in your memory! As you walk the streets read every sign above stores, in store windows, advertisements, etc, and look up every word you don't know. If you did this during your 1 week trip to BA you'd be amazed at how quickly your vocabulary improves. Lots of luck learning this beautiful language mongers! DownBA

Although my Spanish is pretty poor, I think that I can use the posts on /www.bairesgirls.com.ar/foro in my research of girls I might want to see on my next trip. I am finding a few key words which my dictionary is not helping me with. One is "onda". It gets a numeric value. One is "PT". (¿preservativo?) And I find "ogt" and "gft" used. What would they stand for?

3) Will we go to a short time hotel?
4) Do you have a friend for a threesome?
5) Is it ok to take photos - no faces?

Bob,
Onda= gfe
pete(pt)= blowjob
also, pete sin (BBBJ) while pete con (CBJ)
gft(gift)= price
ogt (ogete)= ass
Although my Spanish is pretty poor, I think that I can use the posts on /www.bairesgirls.com.ar/foro in my research of girls I might want to see on my next trip. I am finding a few key words which my dictionary is not helping me with. One is "onda". It gets a numeric value. One is "PT". (¿preservativo?) And I find "ogt" and "gft" used. What would they stand for?
Gracias, Bob

Rusty Spanish, yes indeed: about an inch thick! Take your dictionary dude, as I do…
By the way just copy and past some of these gems into an online translator, LOL. Hint: novio = Boy Boyfriend.

Hi Guys,
Will be in BA soon and have my trusty spanish dictionary at hand. However, I was wondering if someone would be kind enough to write down some spanish for the following:
1) How many pesos for all night?
2) What time will you want to leave?
3) Will we go to a short time hotel?
4) Do you have a friend for a threesome?
5) Is it ok to take photos - no faces?
6) How many pesos for 2 hours?
7) Do you want to come home with me?
8) You are a very sexy woman?
Any help much appreciated guys, Anzac
To Elvis - Thanks mate for info - I think
To Havanaman - Thanks for the tip/hint re "novio"
To Capt Dave - You'd hope I never catch up with you.
Thanks guys

Hey bro
I ain't scared of you!
I just hired the twins as body guards - they'll suck you to death if you try to mess with me!

I am not Argentinean, but I probably spot a couple of mistakes here -- that is, if you want to stick to the usual argentinean grammar...
2) A que hora piensas irte?
3) Iremos a un motel por un rato.
2) should probably be "A qué hora pensás irte?"
3) is more subtle: the single-verb form of the future (the so-called "futuro imperfecto") is not used any longer in Argentina; they use a progressivo form instead. I.e., it should be "Vamos a ir a un motel por un rato.". From what I know, if you say "telo", instead of motel, that'll be just perfect: "telo" (i.e., 'hotel' with the syllabes read backwards) is hotel where, ahem, rooms are rented by the hour.

1) How many pesos for all night?
¿cuánto (me cobrás) por toda la noche?, (en pesos)
It's not mandatory to say "me cobrás", and mentioning the kind of currency at the end it's just to be sure of what you are talking about.
2) What time will you want to leave?
¿a qué hora queres irte?
3) Will we go to a short time hotel?
¿vamos un rato a un hotel?
4) Do you have a friend for a threesome?
¿tenes una amiga para una fiesta (or fiestita)?
Any relation with more than 2 persons is a Fiesta, sexually speaking.
5) Is it ok to take photos - no faces?
¿puedo sacar fotos sin mostrar la cara?
6) How many pesos for 2 hours?
¿cuánto (me cobrás) por 2 horas? en pesos, por favor.
Or better
¿Cuáles son tus honorarios por 2 horas? (that would make the girl feel conssidered as a professional, not just a hooker)
7) Do you want to come home with me?
¿querés venir conmigo?
8) You are a very sexy woman
Sos muy sexy. (it's not a question)
this is the way we speak in Buenos Aires, it's not the same in other cities in Argentina.
Also to speak with the syllabes read backwards, its an extremely confident way to speak, if it is a first meeting, being a little formal is not bad policy.
Happy (impending) new year, fellow mongers!
Today I was cleaning up my book cases a little, and came across a lillte book I had bought a while back. I got a big laugh out of it, and thought it would be appropriate to share it with you. Unfortunately, the search function is still not working properly, so, my apologies if this has been covered before.
The book is called: "Mierda! The Real Spanish You Were Never Taught in School", by Frances de Talavera Berger. ISBN 0-452-26424-3. Here's (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0452264243/qid=1104515243/sr=2-1/ref=pd_ka_b_2_1/104-4869097-2334306) a link to it on Amazon. It basically is a collection of very nasty, vulgar Spanish idioms you may one day come across in your mongering career in South America. Note, however, this does not constitue an endorsement of vulgarity by Sexplorer :o, simply that it is not unreasonable to expect to one day come across some of these expressions and it is good to be able to understand them.
In case you are interested, there is also a Russian version of the same book called "Dermo", which I'll post in the Russia board shortly.
