"Planchar" is to "iron".... like "tengo que planchar mis pantalones" (I have to iron my pants). I'm just trying to figure out how that word came to be... you know how I am about words.
Maybe there is another definition to "planchar" I don't know about.

Dime cosas dulces para que cuando te las tengas que tragar, no te sepan tan amargas!!! -
@bebestyle - walking on air said that it was a term used in a show "12 Corazones ". I don't know where that show is played but it sounds specific to that area.
-
That show is given on Telemundo.....it's based off of an Argentinian game show...but it's now recorded in LA California. The host, Penelope Menchaca, is actually Mexican...So I'm going to assume that the term is mexican. I think it's just a slang way of saying sex. Just like in Puerto Rico we say "Undir Pelos".

i've got 2 words that i hear a lot, but never understood, cajaro and vacilar. i'm pretty sure cajaro is a cuss word, but i'm not sure what it's supposed to mean, and vacilar, i have no clue. i just know i hear it a lot from puerto ricans (mainly in reggaeton music)
-
Hi! Well, at least in Mexico 'carajo' is like a softer way to say 'sh*t', and 'vacilar' can mean to joke or to party

here "vacilar" is used for young people with the meaning of "engañar, tomar el pelo, burlarse o reírse de alguien"(making fun, laughing, to pull someone's leg, etc.)
-
Oh yes, you're right dear Xiurell! it also has that meaning in Mexico ('te está vacilando= he's pulling your leg/winding you up')

Vacilar is also to have lots of fun. Originally Posted by dmoney101

Thanks! -
Hi Damarys
Now that you mention it, it also means 'to hesitate', so it basically depends on the context:

I just need to be up on the latest lingo. I'm not around very many Spanish speakers, which is why I come to the forum, so my Spanish is sort of stagnant. Thanks for the link to El Diccionario de la Real Academia. My dad used it as a bible while I was growing up. Ha!

I basically use the RAE dictionary only for work
