HYACINTH (Symb. jealousy)

Literally 'fart', but in Mexican slang it has several meanings: estar pedo = to be drunk; hacer un pedo = to cause a problem; ¿cuál es tu pedo? = what's your problem? The exact meaning shifts entirely with context.

A strongly homophobic slur in Mexican Spanish. Its repeated use in this episode is narratively significant and reflects the hostility and internalised homophobia of the characters who use it. Reclaimed by some within LGBTQ+ communities, but remains highly offensive when used externally.

Flojera means laziness or lack of energy. Saying something es de flojera means it's tedious, a drag, or simply not worth bothering with. Very common in Mexican everyday speech.

Quintessentially Mexican expression with a wide range of uses: encouragement, agreement, hurrying someone along, or acknowledging a point. Tone and context are everything.

Literally 'of bear', but this expression means something is embarrassing or makes you cringe. Hacer el oso means to embarrass yourself. Common in Mexican informal speech, especially among younger speakers.

Also spelled 'wey'. The single most common form of address between male peers in Mexican Spanish. Can be neutral or mildly contemptuous depending entirely on tone. Rarely offensive between friends.

One of the most culturally loaded words in Mexican Spanish. Unlike 'ahora', 'ahorita' can mean immediately, in a few minutes, or later, the actual timing depends entirely on context, tone, and situation. Notoriously confusing for non-native speakers.
