sobamanguera: (is it "c0cksucker???)
guillar/guilla/guille:
mahon:

bueno mamita...veniste al lugar corecto! jaja

Mahon significa...Jeans

Guillao, Guilla, Guille is like saying Frontin...that's probably the best word I can think to describe it. Depends on how you use it too.

Sobamanguera can mean c0cksucker...or jerk0ff....something to that effect.

una persona Guilla es una persona que esta actuando fuera de su personalidad...por ejemplo...una persona buena, respetuosa se guilla de maliante...o un maliente se guilla de principiante. etc...

Pero tambien se puede usar para felicitar algo que hiciste....por ejemplo..si un tipo esta en un club...y consigue numeros de pal de muchachas...uno puede decir "diablo te guillaste!"

Guillaera es el acto de guillar....

It's like in english, when you put up a front, or you're frontin..that' means that you are acting out of character...impersonating something that you're really not....Hopefully this was helpful!...it's not easy because a lot of the words in our dialect haven't been defined in english....so we have to try our best to describe and grasp the content of the phrase.

It's really nice to hear that you have a job again . I have many old friends in USA who have lost their jobs . Oh, even here, US's crisis is affecting almost every country in the world.

So, I'm always happy when I know people is keeping their job or finding a new one. That's is always such a nice news!!!! . I'm very happy for you!!!. And definitely, we all have a breath and can sleep better when we finally find a job . Congratulations and welcome back here Bebe !

@ Damarys: Thanks sweety! I think it's more then awesome myself! lol I'll be doing Internal IT for a Hospital. A lot of work....But it's work! My brother is 100% thanks for asking....Now that he's back on his feet, I hardly see him! lol...

@ Mares: Gracias amiga! Si los tiempos estan malos...Espero que se mejore pronto porque esto no puede seguir asi.

gracias bb!!! i see that u got a job, bueno, felicitaciones!!!

creo q voy entendiendo (maso) la idea, at least the overall concept...
muchas graciasss

Hi everyone, has anyone ever heard "Que pachita" ? I got it in a text without punctuation. I'm guessing it's a form of "what's up". Maybe even more colloquial like "what's upsies" lol! Also, wasn't sure why it ended in 'a' maybe that's a typo.

Darling, as far as I know... pachita means beer...

Hi Angelbuns! Yes, that's the right meaning (what's upsies?) and no, it's not a typo. What happens is that it's derived from "¿qué pasión?" (¿qué pasión?------> ¿qué pasióncita?------>¿qué pachita?) and "pasión" is female, so "pachita" takes the female ending too. And "¿qué pasión?" is just a very slangy way to ask "¿qué pasa?"

Ahhh thank you!

Here we use ¿qué pacha? (slang) for ¿qué pasa? I didn't know the use of the diminutive

Wow Xiurell! I'm surprised you use a similar expression I thought it was something only we mexicans say

So, I guess, only here in the north, we call the beer = pachita...

Mmhhh... maybe... I'd never heard 'pachita' meaning 'beer' before. In Central Mexico we call beer 'chela' and the big one liter bottles are called 'caguama'.
