00:00
Jenny. So there's a lot of words,
00:02
in Spanish that come from like English words like jar
00:07
means to hang loche for lunch.
00:12
che che for Czech Per Park.
00:18
And even I thought was a word for the Long Me too
00:24
And then my dad was like,
00:26
That one sounds more proper,
00:28
you know, but I'm over here texting people and shit.
00:32
But there are many words in Spanish that a lot of people
00:34
don't know, come from English.
00:38
there's a viste beef steak,
00:42
steak. Yeah, beef steak.
00:45
There we go. Dogs are named FFF for free of lice
00:52
Yes, that's what our parents would do.
00:54
Like, like when they bring a dog back,
00:57
the, I guess the people,
00:58
when you cross the dog,
01:00
the dog's free of lice.
01:01
So I guess the they were like,
01:08
in Cuba they call women's underwear,
01:10
mama. I've heard my grandma say this one.
01:12
Bloomers blooming, blooming.
01:15
She says blooming. Is it?
01:16
Why?, a word that traces back to the,
01:19
to the first, to the first woman's pants that were invented
01:25
No bloomers. There we go.
01:27
Yep. Also in Cuba they say Guagua,
01:32
I grew up saying Guagua.
01:33
So isn't that what bad bunny?
01:35
Also said in the Guagua gua and you can thank this word
01:40
for comes from English from a company that actually brought buses
01:44
out to Cuba and there was WWW A and yeah,
01:47
I, I actually had to Google that those guys up.
01:49
So they're like two brothers like the WW short for like Washington
01:53
and I forgot the other one but it stuck around because I've
01:56
been saying I say wah wah to this day.
02:00
and also, and another one that called me with Camila
02:04
was Daddy Yankee. Calls himself El Kri.
02:07
Have you ever heard of him?
02:09
But he calls himself Kang Kang Show for Kang Man,
02:14
which comes from Congressman.
02:20
This what threw me off people is nice is nice.
02:25
people is nice but I've never heard that one.
02:31
Yeah, I think it means more like maybe more.
02:34
You're, you're from the Caribbean.
02:37
I'm more from like Mexico but you gotta,
02:40
you gotta tune me in.
02:42
I'm out here now is nice.
02:45
Is nice. Start dropping that now,
02:50
man. I don't know what this is because I grew up
02:52
with one of them bad boys.
02:54
Definitely. The only got licenses to carry and this one
02:58
is short for a watchman.
03:00
Watch, man. Where's the watch,
03:05
This dude is creeping me out on the corner.
03:07
What's the next one?
03:10
Chomi? I'm not familiar with it.
03:13
I have to do my Google for this one.
03:15
This one is a little,
03:16
you know, a little one rated R chomi.
03:21
I've been using it now though,
03:22
after I learned what it was,
03:26
start, I added it to the vocabulary.
03:29
Is you Tomino or Mi Chomi.
03:36
Oh, ok. Now I know what it is just like
03:48
The sailors coming? So it was about so Chomi,
03:51
the work came from sailors that were apparently thirsty as hell with
03:55
women right before they were getting leaving on,
03:58
on boat rides and they would scream out,
04:03
They want them to show?
04:04
It's like the truckers when the truckers pick up the hookers and
04:07
they turn on the little Lucecita,
04:12
the cho cho. Damn history.
04:18
So lots of lots of English words come from Spanish too
04:22
So especially cowboy terms.
04:25
from before the Mexican American War,
04:28
the old western term for prison was whose goal it comes
04:34
from the Spanish word,
04:37
who's car and ranch comes from the Rancho lasso from Lao Lao
04:43
Buckaroo from Vaquero. Oh,
04:46
I love that. And the 10 gallon hat from Tanga?
04:52
Oh, ok. I feel like half the city's street names
04:55
are like Spanish dude.
05:01
San Die. Like it's just,
05:03
and then street names.
05:06
There's one I can't say it always breaks me.
05:08
Liam. What's that street?
05:10
Cowabunga? No CC what the fuck is going on there?
05:16
But yeah, I mean the,
05:17
there's just so many words even more the word savvy,
05:20
the word savvy comes from Saber.
05:23
So if you're savvy do s what,
05:27
Cockroach? I love it.
05:30
Oh my God, this is great.
05:32
And it's so funny because also I remember Alejo,
05:36
sorry guys, I gotta talk about Alejo.
05:37
Alejo told me his dad calls Venice Beach,
05:40
Benny's Beach. Benny's beat.
05:44
Oh Benny would have beat damn Ben's but any who let's move
