Worth remembering from this episode

Ordered by what we think matters most.

  1. 1

    pues

    well, then, so (discourse filler/connector)
    expressioncolloquial~12× this episode

    In Colombian Spanish, 'pues' is used constantly as a sentence opener, closer, or filler. It can soften a command ('hágale pues'), confirm agreement, or add resignation to a statement. Its meaning is almost always contextual rather than literal.

    Pues, si no quieres venir, no vengas, pero no te quejes después.Well, if you don't want to come, don't, but don't complain later.

    expressioncolloquial~5× this episode

    huevón

    idiot, fool, dumbass; also used neutrally between close friends as 'dude' or 'man'
    expressionvulgar~10× this episode

    Extremely frequent in Colombian informal speech. Tone shifts dramatically by context: between close friends it is neutral or affectionate; directed at someone in anger it is a genuine insult. This episode uses it mostly in the insulting sense.

    No seas huevón, hombre, devuelve la billetera que te dejaron.Don't be an idiot, man, return the wallet they left you.
  2. 11

    no jodas

    stop messing around, cut it out, are you serious

    A sharp expression of exasperation or disbelief. Tone ranges from frustrated to genuinely angry depending on the speaker's volume and context.

    No jodas, ya son las once y todavía no has terminado el informe.Come on, seriously, it's already eleven and you still haven't finished the report.
