Violetta
A musically-talented teenager returns to her native Buenos Aires after living in Europe.
Very common Argentine expression used to set up a hypothetical or to tell someone to ignore what was just said. Equivalent to 'pretend that...' or 'just imagine that...'
Common in professional and interpersonal contexts. Implies a dignified, self-initiated withdrawal rather than being forced out.
Expresses strong frustration or exhaustion with a person or situation. Very frequent in Argentine speech across all ages.
Mild, almost affectionate way to say someone is not quite right in the head. Softens what could otherwise be a harsh comment.
Used for women; the masculine equivalent is 'estar vuelto loco'. Conveys that someone has completely lost their composure, not just that they are mad.
Used to describe a situation that could fall apart at any moment. Common in tense interpersonal or professional contexts.
Literally 'clear road/track', used figuratively to mean no obstacles stand in the way, especially in romantic pursuit.
Used in arguments to accuse someone of deciding something without enough information. The phrasing implies the jump was premature.
