"Going well" - Colloquial translation

Question

I've heard it many times, but I haven't grasped it just yet. Wondering how to say "how did it go?" and "it was going well until..."

I'll take everything you know about it (want to understand ). I may have heard "te iba bien?"

is it just "irse bien/mal" ? - Jos-Overbey, Aug 26, 2010

Answer 1

For present tense I have seen Ir bien/mal as Jos says. (¿Cómo va?)

For past tense sometimes salir bien/mal (How did it go/turn out?)

or for either pasar bien/mal. (often means enjoy)

Answer 2

Mexican people, to say "going well" will say "ay se va" another common expression, the people say "bien bien" instead of just "bien" when people ask how they are doing.

I may have heard "te iba bien?"

I dont think you heard this in Mexico.

Answer 3

Todo iba bien hasta. . .

Answer 4

how did it go?- ¿Cómo va?, ¿Cómo va la cosa?, (more colloquial), ¿Cómo van las cosas? (the best) "it was going well until..."- "(Pues)Iba bien hasta...."

I hope it helps

it not irse, it's "ir bien/mal" - NeNuN, Aug 26, 2010
