Grilla (pronounced greejah) – a text utilized in medellin to explain women who preferred to drink up and gathering. Like a ‘rumbera’ although with significantly less clase.
Women use it as an adverse but the male is obviously occasionally drawn by your tip. Itagui has been named grillas haven, but i possibly couldn’t maybe remark.
I can’t ponder any further off the roof of your head, but guys who dont choose spend money could be referred to as having chicken-arms (ie, the two don’t hit their particular pockets) and also the gesture in this happens to be massaging your shoulder.
Additionally, Colombians sometimes aim with lips. Its an art and craft i’ven’t perfected.
Ah, one more I like.
la caliente-huevos / los angeles calentadora (the egg much warmer or maybe just the hotter) – it is an expression familiar with depict sexy or flirty ladies whom display interests but don’t aim for sex.
Another vulgar you’re ‘quatero’, used by some as ‘wingman’. Make use of creativeness as to the reasons. This needs to be used in combination with careful attention because it’s fairly an indelicate words.
Arepa actually is a tasty as well as may also be used as a jargon for lady elements. ‘Te agrada arepa paisa?’
Thankfulness really Simon, they’re fantastic additions.

Its amusing what happens to Canadians, particularly west Canadians, with Colombian Spanish. While for a lot of Americans, British and total Europeans find clear Colombian Spanish, Canadians usually say we’ve been rumbling text and that they prefere Costa Rica?s or Nicaragua?s Spanish. As a point of real truth in my situation as Colombian it is almost impossible to inform the diference between individuals of tis three places.
Im British ad partnered to a Colombian who’s from Medellin-I would be around not too long ago and was saved bieng revealed “tranquila” or tranques this means that Don’t fear,

Excellent article, Colombia and Peru(in which i will be from) are very similar region and we has essentially the same slang, but, many of it, features various meaning (don?t question myself the reasons why). Including in Peru chimba suggests cabeza. And also now we state bacan rather than bacano. Most people utilize a bunch of -azo want bacanazo (very cool), o buenazo (really good)and we all incorporate loads the term “pues”, si pues, no pues, claro pues… etc…
As an associates local Colombian i simply planned to talk about that although strong, the term Gordita (oily girl, words of endearment) is obviously great, as Colombians like females with feminine curves, as well term Flaca (skinny lady, endearment expression) is typically not true excellent. In Calli, we all furthermore use oye, mire, vea as a means of beginning chat and being their interest on a subject matter or on anything. Berraca could also be used to explain a badass (awesome) hardworking female exactly who brings exactly what she would like (fierce) ie. Ella es UNA berraca. but if you get the text an adj. situation Ella LA berraca, it signifies she’s crazy.
Many thanks a lot when it comes to more terms, I’ll want these people when I’m in Colombia.
