What are some Spanish expressions?

Question

I was of Dios mio. But are there any expressions in Spanish equal to: "Oh my word!", "Holy Cow!", "That is so cool!"?

Answer 1

I am from Mexico, so I'll list some of the things we use...

¡Qué más!- What's up! (Slang) Chico- Young (Slang) Ruca- Girl (Slang) ¡Chale!- No Way! ¡Orale!- Though it isn't really a word, it is used for motivation. (Slang) Q.E.P.D.- R.I.P. (Slang) Tener coraje- to be angry (slang) Para Nada- You're Welcome (Slang) ¡Qué ondas!- What's up! (Slang) ¡Simón!- Right on!, Yeah... (Slang) ¡Híjole!- OMG! (Slang) Chilango- Someone who lives in Mexico City (Slang) Compa- Man; example, ¡Hola Compa! ¿Qué ondas?- Hey man! What's up? (Slang)

Hope this helps!
