Go! Live Your Way

B2

Worth remembering from this episode

Ordered by what we think matters most.

  1. 1

    autorización

    permission slip, authorization
    noun (f)~5× this episode
    Para ir al viaje de estudios necesitás traer la autorización firmada por tus padres.To go on the school trip you need to bring the permission slip signed by your parents.
  2. 2

    equipo

    team; also audio/technical equipment
    noun (m)~4× this episode
    El equipo de sonido se arruinó justo antes de que empezara el evento.The sound equipment broke down just before the event started.
  3. 3

    zafar

    to get out of a difficult situation, to escape trouble
    expressioncolloquial

    Very common in everyday Argentine speech. Used when someone narrowly avoids a problem or gets away with something. Can describe both physical escape and dodging blame.

    Por suerte zafé: el profe no se dio cuenta de que no había hecho la tarea.Luckily I got away with it: the teacher didn't realize I hadn't done the homework.
  4. 4

    cachar

    to catch someone doing something they shouldn't
    expressioncolloquial

    Used in Argentine and broader Rioplatense speech to mean catching someone in the act. The implied meaning of discovery and exposure is not recoverable from the word's literal form.

    Me cacharon revisando el celular en clase y me lo sacaron.They caught me checking my phone in class and took it away.
  5. 5

    sanción

    disciplinary penalty, sanction
    noun (f)
    Si llegás tarde tres veces seguidas, te pueden poner una sanción.If you arrive late three times in a row, they can give you a penalty.
  6. 6

    colado

    someone who sneaks in without an invitation or ticket, gate-crasher
    adjective/noun (m)
    Hubo varios colados en el recital porque no controlaban bien la entrada.There were several gate-crashers at the concert because they weren't checking the entrance properly.
  7. 7

    salir gratis

    to get away with something without consequences
    expressioncolloquial

    The phrase 'no te va a salir gratis' is a common threat meaning the other person will face consequences for what they did. 'Gratis' here does not mean free of charge but free of punishment.

    Lo que le hiciste a tu compañero no te va a salir gratis.What you did to your classmate is not going to go unpunished.
  8. 8

    dalo por hecho

    consider it done, you can count on it
    expressioncolloquial

    A fixed reassuring phrase used to confirm that you will definitely do something asked of you. Stronger than 'sí, lo hago' because it signals total certainty and commitment.

    ¿Necesitás que te ayude con la mudanza el sábado? Dalo por hecho.Do you need help with the move on Saturday? Consider it done.
  9. 9

    preceptoría

    school administration office (where disciplinary matters are handled)
    noun (f)
    Me llamaron a la preceptoría porque llegué tarde al primer módulo.They called me to the administration office because I arrived late to first period.
  10. 10

    tutor

    legal guardian, responsible adult supervisor
    noun (m)
    Como sus padres viven en el exterior, un familiar actúa como tutor.Since her parents live abroad, a relative acts as her legal guardian.
