Won't Save You Here

You learned “Dónde está la biblioteca?” and thought you were ready for Medellín. Cute. Nobody has ever asked for the library in Medellín at 2am. What they have asked is “Parcero, estás jincho o qué?” and you stood there like a golden retriever hearing a ceiling fan for the first time.

This book exists because Google Translate doesn't cover slang, your phrasebook was written by someone who's never been to a reggaetón club, and because telling a Mexican woman she's “caliente” does not mean what you think it means.

200+ slang phrases. 6 countries. The unfiltered truth about what people are actually saying around you—and about you.

Revelations

A Taste of the Scripture

Hover the blurred ones. If you dare.

No Mames
The Swiss Army knife of Mexican disbelief. “Holy sh*t,” “no way,” “you can't be serious.” You will hear this 47 times per day.
Mexico
Gonorrea
Yes, like the STD. In Colombia it means “a**hole” or “f***er.” But between close friends? A term of endearment. Context is everything. Read the room.
Colombia
Nuclear
Pura Vida
Hello, goodbye, thank you, you're welcome, cool, amazing, and the entire Costa Rican philosophy of life. One phrase. Infinite uses. You literally can't overuse it.
Costa Rica
Caliente
You think it means “hot” (temperature). It actually means “horny.” You told your host mom you were caliente at dinner. She will never look at you the same way again.

Mexico
Danger
Embarazada
Does NOT mean “embarrassed.” It means “pregnant.” You told your Colombian date you were “muy embarazada.” Congratulations, you just announced your pregnancy.

Universal
Critical
Caralho
THE Brazilian curse word. Literally means the male anatomy. Used like “f**k” in every conceivable situation. Joy, anger, surprise, boredom. It does it all.
Brazil

Testimony of the Converted

From the Congregation

I told my Uber driver in Mexico City I needed to ‘coger un taxi.’ He almost crashed. This book would have saved me from that conversation.

Bought this for my buddy's bachelor party in Cartagena. He read the Colombia chapter on the flight. He went from liability to legend.

I called my Argentine friend ‘boludo’ within 30 seconds of landing in Buenos Aires. He bought me a Fernet. This book is scripture.

My Spanish teacher for four years never taught me a single word in this book. Four. Years. This should be required reading.
