Worth remembering from this film
Ordered by what we think matters most.
güey
dude, man, buddy (general address or filler between friends)expressioncolloquialExtremely high-frequency in informal Mexican speech between friends. Depending on tone and context it can be affectionate, neutral, or mildly reproachful. Spelled also as 'wey'. Not appropriate in formal settings.
Güey, ¿ya viste la película que salió este fin de semana?Dude, did you see the movie that came out this weekend?boludo
idiot, dummy (Argentine insult/address between friends)expressioncolloquialRioplatense Spanish term brought in by the Argentine character. Between close friends it softens to something like 'dude' or 'man', but it remains an insult in other contexts. Its repeated appearance in this episode marks the Argentine character's speech as distinctly non-Mexican.
