Question

Hello. I received a message today from a girl in mexico. She commented on a Song I posted to youtube.

This is what she said: "chale  mi rey. buena la rola,  te keda vien.   la de te quiero puta. muy a tu estilo."

Thank you for your time.

Welcome... ah, we do pride ourselves in using proper capitalization and the like on here...like *M*exico and *s*ong... :) - cristalino, Jan 5, 2012

Answer 1

Hi:

Your "fan" is poor in writing but smart on slang. She wrote: chale mi rey. buena la rola, te keda vien. la de te quiero puta, muy a tu estilo. Translated into Spanish, it goes this way:

-chale = Hey, or Hell (it's sort of a hello with this generation.

-mi rey = mi tío or "man", "friend" like "yo man" used to be.

-buena = it's good

-la rola = the song (somewhat derived from rock n roll) roll => rola (so it's a good song, a good beat, a good tempo).

-te keda vien = Te queda bien (you know that "v" and "b" have the same prononciación. And "k" is short for "qu"; she meant that the song suits you well; it defines you; it's resembles you.

la de = la parte que dice, the part that says... This is not slang, it's only a short expressión. It's also common in French (celle qui... = the one of or the one that...

te quiero puta = I love you, b... (I love you babe is almost the same but less vulgar then the female dog.)

(So she refers to the part that says: I love you sweethaeart (yes I'm older than her and more romantic) and she adds that that sentence is "muy a tu estilo" = "very likeness of you".

It depicts (portrays) your style.

She's a fan! She said: Hey man, this song is good. It's resembles you. The part "I love you babe" portrays your style.

Answer 2

You know what Circo-loco, the translation is quite difficult and tasteless. It is for sure, poor Spanish, horrid spelling and low class words that are not worth translating. Clearly, someone I would not care to be friends with. An insult to Spanish!

Answer 3

Thanks guys. The reason she is saying te quiero puta. Is because that is the name if the song I posted of myself singing.

thanks anyway. Muchas gracias. Que tenga un buen dia.

No problem! Stay away from low class Spanish. If you are trying to learn a new language, learn it the right way! - farallon7, Jan 5, 2012

@fara: in all fairness, las palabrotas should be learned too, but never encouraged... :) - cristalino, Jan 5, 2012

Answer 4

@Carhl:

-chale = Hey, or Hell (it's sort of a hello with this generation)

I have always understood this slang to mean, simply: "No" = very close to its cousin nela (canela) and its anglicized relative no way, José...

Hi and welcome to SpanishDict!

This is very hard to read, even for farallon, a native speaker. You know, all I can make out is puta, which is enough for me. I don't understand why she said te quiero puta...why is she calling you a puta?!
