The Spanish Brand

Very versatile colloquial verb. Can mean to catch someone doing something, to pick up an object or person, or to understand a joke or reference. Context determines meaning.

Short for 'no hagas ni caso'. Used to tell someone to disregard what was just said or done. Often dismissive or reassuring.

Standard colloquial way to express whether you like or dislike someone's personality. Not romantic. 'Me cae bien' = I like them (as a person). Grammatically, the person liked is the subject.

Used affectionately or mockingly to describe someone who is overly naive or easily fooled. Not particularly offensive between friends.

Diminutive, slightly dismissive or affectionate term for a small business or enterprise. Commonly used in casual speech to downplay the size or importance of a commercial venture.

Idiomatic expression, literally 'my rice is overcooking'. Almost exclusively used by women talking about the perceived window for having children, though occasionally used humorously in other time-sensitive contexts.

The most common vulgar verb for sex in casual speech. Used matter-of-factly between close friends without necessarily being highly offensive in context, though it remains explicitly vulgar.

Compound insult targeting a woman who is seen as flirtatious without following through. Highly gendered and offensive; included because it appears and would be confusing without explanation.
