Raza
/Sounds like "RAH" (as in "rapper") + "sah" (as in "salsa")/
Meaning
The people, the crowd, your crew. In Mexican street slang, "raza" is how you address a group of friends, a neighborhood, or even an entire community with warmth and familiarity. It literally means "race" or "people," but in everyday Mexican Spanish it drops all the heavy connotations and becomes a casual, inclusive way of saying "folks" or "everyone." You will hear it at parties, in street markets, on social media, basically anywhere someone wants to hype up a crowd or call out to their people.
Examples
“What's up, people!”
“Here come the crew, everyone's here.”
