Does "lo pillas" mean "got it"? like, "do you get it"?

In Spain, at least, it does, but it is very colloquial.

Literally, "catch it", but Heidita wrote something to me once using it in your context of "understanding it".

  1. to get (informal) (chiste, explicación)

no lo pillo -> I don't get it

I'm finding the show "Archer" (spanish version) is full of cool idiomatic speech and easy(ish) to understand - jeezzle, Aug 8, 2011
I love that show in English. It must have some interesting vocabulary in Spanish. - 0074b507, Aug 8, 2011
