Worth remembering from this episode
Ordered by what we think matters most.
vos
you (singular informal)expressionThe standard second-person singular informal pronoun in Argentine (Rioplatense) Spanish, used in place of 'tú'. It takes its own verb forms: 'vos tenés', 'vos sabés', 'vos sos'. Not slang at all in Argentina, it is the everyday default, but learners trained on other varieties may not recognize it immediately.
Vos siempre sabés qué decir cuando alguien está triste.You always know what to say when someone is sad.capitán
captain, team captainnoun (m)Eligieron a Rodrigo como capitán del equipo de fútbol por su liderazgo.They chose Rodrigo as the team captain for his leadership.madrina

let's see, come on, alright thenexpressioncolloquialUsed to introduce a scrutinizing look, a request, or mild impatience. The literal 'to see' is entirely bleached out. Tone shifts its meaning from curious ('let me see') to skeptical or demanding, depending on context.
A ver, contame de nuevo qué pasó desde el principio.Alright then, tell me again what happened from the beginning.dale
OK, sure, go ahead, alrightexpressioncolloquialExtremely common all-purpose affirmative in everyday Argentine speech. It signals agreement, permission, or encouragement depending on context and tone. Much more frequent and versatile here than a simple 'sí'.

scholarship student, scholarship recipientnoun/adjective (m)Los becados de primer año tienen que rendir un examen de ingreso antes de empezar.First-year scholarship students have to take an entrance exam before starting.nada que ver
nothing to do with it, not at all, that's not the caseexpressioncolloquialUsed to flatly deny a connection or accusation. The literal meaning ('nothing to see') gives no clue to its dismissive, contradicting function. Very common in everyday Argentine speech.
Pensé que llegaste tarde por mi culpa, pero nada que ver, fue el tráfico.I thought you were late because of me, but it had nothing to do with that, it was traffic.
