Spelling, please. I want to "know ". . .how. "There" is a Spanish guy. This is serious - why don't you say "no comprendo" to him? - NancyGrace, Feb 19, 2012

Saca is ok as a way to say 'take out (your money)', but I'm not familiar with fetia.

I think you should call the police.

Hi! the correct way to say it is "dame tu dinero" or "dame el dinero".

I've listened to all kinds of Spanish and never ever heard "saka la fetia".

In South America you can also say "dame la plata". It's normal and a synonym for "dinero".

In Mexico, informal people say "dame la lana"; but that's very informal.

Hi. Maybe this will help.

From the dictionary:

3) small change (monedas) (Mexican Spanish)

¿me cambia diez pesos por feria? -> could you give me change of ten pesos, please?

lol I have no idea then what he means. When I ask him what he means he says it means give me your money. He says that is what someone says when they are stealing money from someone! I am pretty sure I have heard on a movie someone referring to money as "la feria" (not sure of spelling once again) maybe not! lol It is hard to get the correct meaning from him because he does not speak good English. On one website they say that la feria mean change; coins; money. Thanks for all the help anyway.

"Saca la feria". Literally, he's telling you to give him your small change, i.e., whatever's in your pocket. One of the definitions of "feria" is "small change" or just "change"; it also happens to be Mexican slang (your friend is Mexican, right?) - Goldie_Miel, Feb 21, 2012
So, in a nutshell, yes, your friend is saying "Give me your money", just in a different manner. - Goldie_Miel, Feb 21, 2012

He says it joking ... he is Mexican, maybe it is slang? I have heard it used in a movie before I just can't remember which movie. Maybe "saca la feria'" or "saca la fedia" .. I can not spell it, because I can not find the correct English translation for it. I know that dinero means money in Spanish, maybe there is some slang, or a different type of dialect .. thanks for the help.
