¡Pásatelo bien! or ¡Pásalo bien! - regional?

Question

Just out of interest which is more common where you live?

¡Pásatelo bien! or ¡Pásalo bien!

The reason I ask is that I recently made a leccioncita about 'enjoying oneself' and I received two comments, one saying that 'pásatelo bien' was more common in Spain while 'pásalo bien' would be heard in Latin America and the other saying that 'pásalo bien' was how it would be said in Spain.

So now I'm wondering if both are used in both areas but it's regional.

Any comments appreciated (smiley)

Answer 1

Yo digo ambos. Pero he vivido en Latinoamérica y España. También escucharás las variantes: "¡Pásatela bien!" o "¡Pásala bien!".

thanks Franco, so the 'la' would be 'la fiesta' or something like that? - Kiwi-Girl, Sep 29, 2012

Great question, Kiwi.
