This is a free website for anyone interested in learning Spanish.
I am currently using it and find it very informational.

Hope that it will be of help to some other gringos wanting to learn the language of our Mexican friends.
Following are some additional Spanish phrases. Hope this will be of benefit to some of the group. I am still working at trying to learn Spanish.

Howdy....just thought I'd share a few words and/or phrases that you can use when phoning in an order for an escort in Mexico:
Me puedes mandar una chica a mi habitacion
(meh pooedes mandar oona cheeka a me ahbeetaseeon)
.....................Can you send a girl to my hotel room?
Quiero una chica (keyero una cheeka)....I want a girl
Guera (uera)...Light-skinned
Morena (morena)...Dark-skinned
Rubia (rubia)...Blonde
Alta (ahlta)...Tall
Chaparra (chahpara)...Short
Flaca (flahca)...Skinny
Gorda (gorda)...Fat
Con pecho grande (cohn pecho grande)...Big-breasted
Con buena fisica (cohn buena fiseeca)...In shape
Ojos claros (ohos clahros)...Blue or Green eyes
Joven (hoven)...Young
Mayor (mahyor)...Older
Quiero sexo oral (keyero sexo OHral)...I want oral sex
Quiero sexo anal (keyero sexo AHnal)...I want anal sex

Cuanto cuesta la hora? (Cooanto cuesta la ora)
...How much does the hour cost?
Traes condon? (trys condON)...Do you have a condom?
Te gusta? (te goosta)...Do you like it?
Te gustó (te goostO)...Did you like it?
*Keep in mind that the Spanish "r" makes a sound that is closer to the letter "d" in English. Actually its between an "r" and a "d"...kinda like a "rd" sound, but not exactly.
I'm no expert in Spanish, but these words have always worked for me. I'm sure that I'll think of a million more after I post this, but I'll update later. If there's anything that you'd like to know, just post it here and I'm sure that we'll be able to help.
Take care and Have fun
Dear forum members,
If anyone wants any help in translation a useful web site is www.freetranslation.com/.
I hope this can be a useful site.

For nothing but sex talk, try to find Hot Spanish for guys and girls by Babelcom. It is amazing, and gives you most of the slang for various questions we all have.lol.
ie: Te voy a poner las esposas (i'm going to handcuff you), o besala mientras te follo (kiss her while i fuck you).
Makes for some interesting reading, although you might not want anyone reading over your shoulder on a plane. And try not to smirk.
Be aware that some words do not mean the same in Mexico as in the version you are using to translate them.
Follar is used in Spain, not in Mexico.
In Mexico we use for "fuck" either "coger" o "chingar", and sometimes not even those words cause some girls want the romantic words, not the dirty words.
I frequently use follar with the ladies of Juarez. They look at me funny but they seem to like the word as a plesant change from the usual words gringos use down there. I only use the romantic words when I am getting a freebie.

Mu,
They probably look at you funny because Mexicans don't generally use the word "follar". It is pretty much restricted in its usage to Spain. The most common Mexican term for this activity is "coger".
This site seems to have alot of slang words used in Mexico. Hope it's ok to post the like and that it's useeful.

Hey Belgrath,
Just want to say, great slang site. You did real good with that one!!! Just what I've been looking for.
Recently I have been few times in Reynosa and Matamoros, well more in Reynosa, and my friends tend to ask the girls in Mexico if they do anal sex, so they ask "Hace sexo anal?" (Do you do anal sex?) and many of them look at them kind of funny even thought few of them understand them. I have been told them to use this phrase "Hace sexo por atras" (Do you do sex with your behind or ass or butt) and they have tried and it has worked for them. I hope this is of a great help for most of you guys.
I'm out
One of the best links with specialized vocabulary is at:
[url]http://www.mexican-hookers.com/chamuco/spanish.htm[/url]
This is an inactive website. I've been dropping in on it for about three years and have never seen any activity. That's why I'm posting it. Hope it doesn't break the rule.
But it sure help out on my south of the border communications.
Question:
How do you say:
1) BBBJ or Do you do a blowjob without a condom.
2) A GFE (girlfriend experience)
3) Do you kiss
Was in TJ...... and #1 was hard to explain and to ask.
