Hi, please use proper punctuation/capitalization when posting, there are people here learning English and we need to be a good example to them. I have corrected your post. Welcome to the forum! - Destroyed99, Jun 10, 2011

"Chingar" originally meant "to fight" in the language of Spanish gypsies, caló. In México however it has transformed to be as versatile as the English f-word, with a myriad of applications... the word you may be looking for is "Bronca" which carries the meaning of drama and/or fighting (this literally means "wild woman").... you make whatever inferences you want! red face

Disclaimer: I personally don't use the c-word above, but am aware of its use and only provide it as an educational aid.
