Well, I'm not sure if this is necessarily a "cholo" word, but it's pretty damn close. I have to post "en chinga."
Word:
En Chinga
Meaning According To DT: haste, fast, freakin' quick, in a hurry
(might be considered a curse word, depending on who you're talking to)
Used in a sentence:
"Pollo, vamos en chinga al H-E-B porque la jefita quiere queso para las enchiladas."
"Nombre Chinche, they went to get the cheese last week at the escuelin."
Translation according to DT:
"Pollo, let's go really quick to H-E-B because mom wants cheese for the enchiladas."
"No Bedbug, they went to get cheese last week at the school."
Bonus Word:
Escuelin: School
side note: I never did really laugh at those "cheese line" jokes, but I was always the kid in that line, and damn that cheese is good!
yeah, I was taught that a word that soungs remarkably like "chinga" was a curse word.
ReplyDeleteYeah, used as a verb, "chinga" is pretty bad, no?
