Something daring, provocative, or with sexual undertones in Argentina. Can also mean risky, edgy, or crossing a line. When a comment is picante, everyone exchanges knowing looks.
When someone says something you totally agree with and it's objectively true beyond any debate. It's like saying 'you're absolutely right' but in Gen Z fashion — quick, direct, and final.
A dumb person or someone who doesn't understand things no matter how many times you explain. Calling someone burro is a classic since elementary school that never goes out of style — it stings, but we've all heard it.
A ticket to access an event, concert, movie, or show in Spain and other countries. It's what you need to buy and have in hand so they'll let you through the door without any issues.
Excellent, amazing, top quality. In Chile, "pulento" is the ultimate compliment for something that blew you away, whether it is food, a soccer play, or a weekend plan. It is pure Chilean enthusiasm packed into one word that you will hear constantly on the streets of Santiago.
