la hostia
damn it; also used as intensifier meaning 'incredibly', 'the best', 'a blow/punch'expressionvulgarExtremely high-frequency all-purpose intensifier. Derives from the Eucharistic host, a blasphemous origin that has been fully bleached. 'Sois la hostia' = 'you're amazing/unbelievable'. 'La hostia' alone expresses surprise or pain. Can be affectionate, admiring, or angry depending on tone.
Ese concierto fue la hostia, no he visto nada igual en mi vida.That concert was incredible, I've never seen anything like it in my life.follar
to have sex, to fuckexpressionvulgarVery common in everyday casual speech between intimates. Entirely unremarkable in informal registers; not considered particularly shocking among friends, though clearly inappropriate in formal contexts.
¿Sabes lo que me apetece ahora mismo? Follar y luego dormir doce horas seguidas.You know what I feel like right now? Having sex and then sleeping twelve hours straight.acojonarse
to shit oneself with fear, to get really scared, to bottle itexpressionvulgarDerives from cojones. Used to describe being overcome by fear or losing nerve. Blunt and expressive; standard in informal speech among people who know each other.

the mouth of the wolf; meaning a very dangerous or exposed situationexpressionvulgarMetaphorical expression for placing yourself in the heart of danger. 'La boca del lobo' exists without the expletive, but adding 'puta' ramps up the emotional intensity. Common in dramatic or emphatic speech.
Nadie entendía por qué seguía trabajando allí; era meterse en la puta boca del lobo.Nobody understood why he kept working there; it was walking straight into the jaws of the beast.
