Ojo: The "Cholo Word Of The Day" is simply for fun. This is not an academic exercise, therefore I do not spend much time checking for espelling or grammatical errors. Most of the words are not only used by "cholos," but by many people in S. Texas - and their usage can vary. c/s

Cholo Word Of The Day - Aguitado

Again, I've heard this used by many people, not only cholos, but it's a pretty cool word and I'd like to use it.

Word:
Aguitado

Meaning According To DT:
down, embarrassed, depressed

Used in a sentence:

"No te aguites Chon, te puedes encontrar otra, bien rapido."

"No es eso Chago, es que a la Candy, si la queria."


Translation according to DT:
"Do get down on yourself Chon, you can find another one, real fast."

"That's no it Santiago, it's that I really did like Dulcelina."

Note: Dulcelina, is usually Dulce, but since we love changing names, here we call her "la Candy."
