Terms of endearment for a female friend from a female friend

Question

Hola, quiero aprender mas vocabulario para platicando con mi amiga. Cuales son unas palabras en espanol como igual que "sweetie" que puedo usar en conversacion casual sin sexual connotation?

Answer 1

Mi amor, amorcita,amiguita

My love, lovey,friend.

Answer 2

Querida (dear), corazón (heart - can be used to mean my love), bella (beauty), dulce (sweetie - though I haven't heard that used frequently).

Answer 3

In Mexico, women friends often call each other "Gorda." In this case it doesn't mean "Fat," but simply an endearment among women.

Answer 4

Without sexual connotion in the southern US I might use "honey" or "dear". With some women younger than myself I might say "girlfriend".This is kind of difficult because I think it would vary by age, ethnicity, geography and the type of social connection you have.

Answer 5

I'm hardly an expert, but my guess is "nena" could work as well.

Answer 6

Hi RaquelitaC I am an english speaker, living in Canada. I quite often use the word darlin or Cariño when speaking to someone that I care about. Don't know in any other regions but it works for me.
