¿Muy guache o mucho guache?

¿Muy guache o mucho guache?

votes

My lovely nóvia just told me that I was mucho guache.

I suggested that shirley it should be muy guache.

She told me that one would say muy guache 'cuando se refiere a la actitud de ser guache', and mucho guache 'cuando es una persona'.

I remain unconvinced. Anyone care to settle this.

It doesn't matter if you don't know what guache means...

My advice is to say, "yes, Dear. I'm sure you must be right." LOL

Je je. Guache is Muisca word meaning soldier/warrior. In Bogotañol it means rough/course/base/uncultured. I'm not saying yes to that :-) - afowen, Jun 2, 2011

Well, I'm not sure what gauche is, but I hear mucho a lot when I think it should be muy, and it is always talking about a person. I hear mucho feo and mucho (palabrotas) a lot instead of muy, when referring to a person but I never considered the attitude thing, she may be onto something with that.
