Posts: 269Book Recommendation
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 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 , 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.

Posts: 2a little more polite ways to say the same.
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.

Posts: 283I am not Argentinean, but I probably spot a couple of mistakes here -- that is, if you want to stick to the usual argentinean grammar...

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.

By the way just copy and past some of these gems into an online translator, LOL. Hint: novio = Boy Boyfriend.

Posts: 80Understanding /www.bairesgirls.com.ar/foro
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

Posts: 214A 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
