pedo
issue, situation, problem (contextual); also literal: fartexpressionvulgarIn informal Mexican speech 'pedo' is extremely versatile. '¿Qué pedo?' means 'What's going on?' or 'What's the deal?' and expresses surprise or confrontation. The word's literal meaning is not usually intended in these conversational uses, but its register remains vulgar.
¿Qué pedo con tu amigo? Llegó y se fue sin saludar a nadie.What's going on with your friend? He arrived and left without greeting anyone.pinche
damn, lousy, freakingexpressionvulgarUsed as an intensifying adjective before a noun to express contempt, frustration, or emphasis. Its literal original sense is 'kitchen assistant' but that meaning is essentially dead in everyday speech. Very common in Mexican Spanish across social classes despite its vulgar label.
Se me olvidó el paraguas y se vino la pinche lluvia.I forgot my umbrella and the damn rain came down.
