let's see / come on then / now thenexpressioncolloquialVery high-frequency discourse marker. Can introduce a question, a challenge, or call someone's attention. Not compositionally transparent because it functions as a filler or soft imperative rather than meaning 'in order to see'.

what's up? / how's it going?expressioncolloquialStandard casual greeting across much of Latin America, especially Mexico. Used between people who know each other, equivalent to '¿qué pasa?' or '¿cómo estás?' in informal contexts.
¿Qué onda, compa? ¿Ya llegaste a la ciudad?What's up, buddy? Did you already get to the city?ya nos vamos
we're heading out / we're leaving nowexpressionThe use of 'ya' here signals immediacy and finality rather than simple future. 'Ya' in this construction does not mean 'already' but rather 'right now' or 'that's it, we're going', which is non-obvious for learners.
Apaga la tele, ya nos vamos o vamos a perder el tren.Turn off the TV, we're heading out now or we'll miss the train.
