Language Lessons

I'm first generation Cuban-American and many Cubans have a tendency to speak Spanglish. It may not be too funny to non-Spanish speakers but some of the things we half-ass translate are hilarious.

Ex:

Chanks- short for chancletas, which means flip-flops, slippers etc., everone in my chapter, Latina or not, knows what this means.

Anyone want to share funny non-English slang words?

I'll try and think some more up!
