Out to Pasture

Comes from the ritual of preparing mate (adding hot water). To be cebado/a about something means you are fuelled up and enthusiastic, like a well-prepared mate.

Describes places, things, or people that are expensive, high-end, or ostentatiously upper-class. Can be neutral admiration or mildly mocking depending on tone.

Derived from the English loanword 'snob'. Used to call out pretentious or affected behaviour, often with light mockery rather than serious accusation.

In this register, means to be overwhelmed with excitement or amazement about something. Positive connotation.

In this episode used as 'cangurito' (diminutive), referring to a baby carrier. The diminutive is very natural and affectionate in Argentine speech.

Imperative of bancar (to support, to put up with, to hold). In this use it means 'wait' or 'bear with me'. Very frequent in spoken Argentine Spanish.

Emphatic intensifier expressing that something will be done brilliantly or at maximum capacity. Enthusiastic and informal; not offensive in casual conversation among friends.

Literally means 'to disgust'. Used hyperbolically in a positive sense to say something is so good it's almost sickening, a form of affectionate exaggeration very common in informal Argentine speech.

Used to describe behaviour, words, or gestures that are excessively sweet or romantic to the point of being embarrassing. Can be self-deprecating or gently mocking.
