Expressions to listen for
11joderfuck, damn (exclamation of frustration or surprise)
vulgar
Extremely common as a general-purpose expletive across a wide range of emotional registers, from mild irritation to genuine distress. Its force varies enormously with intonation, and in casual speech it can lose much of its shock value.
¡Joder, se me ha olvidado el cargador y la batería está al dos por ciento!Damn, I forgot my charger and the battery is at two percent!
tíomate, man, dude (address term between friends)
colloquial
Used between friends of any gender combination as a casual address term. Its literal meaning is 'uncle', but that meaning is completely absent in this conversational use.
Tío, no te lo vas a creer, pero me han dado el trabajo.Mate, you're not going to believe it, but I got the job.
