Through My Window

A very natural, short way of asking for an explanation or expressing mild surprise at what someone has just said or done. More casual than '¿Por qué?' and often signals genuine curiosity rather than challenge.

Used as a direct command ('pírate') to tell someone to go away, or reflexively to say someone left suddenly. Casual and slightly brusque.

Ironic use of 'fino' (fine/refined); in this context it means the opposite, to indulge excessively, especially in drinking. Very vivid colloquial expression.

Used before a noun to express strong feeling, surprise, admiration, or irritation. 'Menudo lío' = what a mess; 'menudo susto' = what a fright. The tone is determined entirely by context.

Literally 'to drool'; figuratively used to say someone is excessively smitten or staring at someone with obvious attraction. Teasing in register.

From the verb 'flipar' (to be amazed, to freak out). Used to express disbelief at what someone has said or done. Very common in informal speech among younger speakers.

The default informal term of address between friends or acquaintances of any gender. Equivalent to 'mate' or 'dude'. Completely neutral in tone between peers; would sound out of place in formal contexts.
