Welcome to Second

The standard Mexican Spanish word for T-shirt or sports jersey. Common in everyday and sports contexts.

Used as a strong compliment. 'Es muy chingón/a' means someone is highly capable or impressive. Despite the vulgar root, it is widely used informally as a positive descriptor.

Violent in its literal image but routinely used in sports contexts to mean 'beat decisively'. Also used metaphorically to mean something was extremely good or impactful.

Used before a noun to express frustration or contempt. Technically vulgar but extremely common in informal Mexican speech. Can also soften slightly to mean 'that stupid' or 'that lousy'.

Derived from 'huevos' (testicles). As an insult it means lazy or useless; between close male friends it can be affectionate and equivalent to 'dude'. Context and tone determine meaning entirely.

Nominalized form of 'encabronarse' (to get furious). Used to describe contained but intense anger. Common in informal speech when describing emotional buildup.

A quintessentially Argentine/Rioplatense vulgar term that appears here in the speech of Argentine characters. Between friends it can be affectionate; directed at a stranger it is offensive. Not typical of Mexican Spanish speakers.
