Worth remembering from this episode
Ordered by what we think matters most.
dale
okay / sure / go ahead / come onexpressioncolloquialOne of the most versatile words in everyday Argentine speech. Depending on tone and context it can signal agreement, encouragement, impatience, or acknowledgment. An outsider knowing the individual words ('dar' + 'le') would not arrive at any of these meanings.
¿Salimos a las ocho? — Dale, perfecto.Shall we head out at eight? — Sure, perfect.espectáculo
show / performance / spectaclenoun (m)El espectáculo de fin de año reunió a toda la escuela.The end-of-year show brought the whole school together.che
hey / mate / listenexpressioncolloquialA uniquely Argentine discourse marker used to get someone's attention or add emphasis. Has no direct translation and cannot be guessed from any root word. Affectionate and casual between peers; can sound sharp if tone is clipped.
Che, ¿viste el partido anoche?Hey, did you see the match last night?ensayo

fundraising / money collectednoun (f)La recaudación del evento superó todas las expectativas.The money raised at the event exceeded all expectations.viste
you know / right / likeexpressioncolloquialUsed as a discourse tag to seek agreement or check comprehension, not as a conjugated form of 'ver' (to see). Equivalent to 'you know what I mean?' or 'right?' in conversational English. Extremely common in Argentine speech and may confuse learners who parse it as a literal past-tense verb.
Ella es muy intensa, viste, siempre quiere tener razón.She's very intense, you know, she always wants to be right.expulsar
