You speak French so that is why you are mixing accents, but remember in Spanish it is easier because all accents are the same, ie: all are accent aigu (´)NO accent grave (`)in Spanish.
Good luck!

jaja, lambones are one of 2 things
1) asskissers
2) someone who invites themselves into things where they aren't wanted
for instance you're having a conversation and somebody tries to join in you could say "tu si ere lambon". Crashing a party would also be something a lambon would do.

Hi Everyone, I am new here and have a phrase I would love for someone to translate for me. I pissed off a friend at work and she emailed me this phrase (she won't tell me what it means, but says it's funny. I am not sure I believe her) Thanks for your help.
ya ni la chingas

I'm not good with street slang, but I believe it means: You don't even f*** her any more
I'm sure someone from the forum will jump in there and correct me if I'm off base.

Wow yeah - I think (hope) you are off on this one, but thanks for the try. I have been told it is not an easy phrase to translate into english.

Well, I have also heard "chingar" used to mean like, to hit it hard, or to punch it. I just am not sure how it is used in that expression you gave.
I speak pretty good Spanish but I was never allowed to speak this way; it was considered vulgar. I hope someone responds here.

LOL! You are not putting me through anything. I'm all grown up now and am trying to learn all aspects of the beautiful Spanish language. I'm just here to learn and to help!
You'll probably have a more definitive answer from someone by tomorrow. Buenas noches.
