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 - Vato

Vato is a word I should have posted a long time ago. It's one of the basics words and I'm sure most of you have either heard/used this word before.

Word:
Vato

Meaning According To DT:
dude, man, guy

Used in a sentence:
"Tutis, aquel Vato es el que va ir a college."

"Iralo, Iralo, no que no. Ese vato es el "Pollo." Lo Conozco desde elementary school."

Translation according to DT:
"Tutis, that guy is the one going to college."

"Well, Well. He's el "Pollo." I've known him since elementary school."

Sometimes, some words are so obvious you forget them.
