Cholo Word Of The Day - Alivianate
I heard my sister of all people say this word the other day. I'm not exactly sure why she said it, but I think she told my mom.
Word:
Alivianate
Meaning According To DT:
calm down, relax, take it easy, don't worry
Used in a sentence:
"Goyo, alivianate ya! El Lore como queira va a brincar a el Secundino."
"Yo se, pero se debe de alivianar con todo ese pedo. Al cabo que su sister ni lo pela."
Translation according to DT:
"Gregory, please relax yourself. Mr. Lawrence is still going to quarrel with the dry one."
"I know, but he should relax with all of that nonsense. It's of no consequence because his sister pays him no mind anyway."

Texican, in Acapulco, when you say "Se alivianó" it means that person got to pay for dinner, the movies, whatever.
Usually the one that invites a friend or some friends out is the one that "se aliviana", the one that foots the bill.

"...pays him no mind anyway."
Is this a South Texan saying? I would never say that. Prehaps I would say "either way he doesn't pay her any attention"

......man, alivianate is like orale, it has so many connotations. You just have to pay attenttion to the tone and the voice pitch to understand what the person is actually saying.
