I can’t think of any further off of the top of the mind, but guys which don’t always pay tends to be known as getting chicken-arms (ie, the two don’t get to their particular pockets) in addition to the motion because of it was massaging your very own joint.
Likewise, Colombians sometimes point their lips. Its a skill i’ven’t mastered.

la caliente-huevos / la calentadora (the egg warmer or maybe just the warmer) – this could be an expression always describe naughty or flirty women just who show fees but don’t desire intercourse.

Great blog post, Colombia and Peru(exactly where I am from) have become close region and we have got essentially the exact same slang, but, the they, possesses different meaning (don?t inquire me the reason). As an example in Peru chimba means cabeza. And also now we talk about bacan in place of bacano. We utilize most -azo enjoy bacanazo (very cool), o buenazo (great)and we utilize plenty the phrase “pues”, si pues, no pues, claro pues… etc…
As an associates indigenous Colombian I just planned to discuss that although strong, the phrase Gordita (junk girl, label of endearment) is in fact great, as Colombians choose females with shape, plus the term Flaca (skinny lady, endearment expression) is typically not very excellent. In Calli, most people furthermore always use oye, mire, vea in order of beginning discussion and being your awareness on a subject or on things. Berraca can also be used to describe a badass (cool) hardworking wife exactly who brings exactly what she wants (tough) ie. Ella es UNA berraca. but if you make the word an adj. model Ella ESTA berraca, this means she’s angry.
Thanks a great deal the further consideration, I’ll require them when I’m in Colombia.
