I have seen "wey" spelled "güey" and is "chance" supposed to be "chansa" or something similar? - cristalino, Apr 2, 2011
chance=chansa but "chance" is more "chido", "chansa" is "naco" - erickbioos, Apr 3, 2011
Güey, wey, we (The three is the same) - erickbioos, Apr 3, 2011

Good reference, but "The word of the day from" 03/Apr/2011 is "No mames" is translate to "Don't mess around"... In spanish "No mames=No digas tonterias".... apologizes for rudeness - erickbioos, Apr 3, 2011
No se preocupe Erick... those are simply references I found, but do not necessarily endorse... :) - cristalino, Apr 3, 2011
The latter I do not recommend to the faint of heart! Very prison-generated vernacular... - cristalino, Apr 4, 2011
