Answer 4

Well, in Mexico, if you see a friend you haven't seen in a while instead of saying "¿Qué pasa?" (what's happening) you say, "¿Qué pasó?" (What happened?) As in, what's happened since I saw you last?

Answer 6

I think this is a question with probably a thousand answers. Growing up in Los Angeles, I always heard ¿Qué pasó? But I'm sure there are a lot more, just like in English there are a lot of ways to say the same general thing.

• Different parts of town, Amy, or did you correct it for them? Seldom did I hear it correctly pronounced, it was usually the lazier - qué pasa? - LateToDinner Aug 23, 2010
• No, I didn't correct them because at the time I didn't know it was wrong! - amykay Aug 23, 2010
