Answer 1

"Pinche güey" is correct.

"Pinche" means a chef´s helper and when used as slang it´s similar to "damned", so I wouldn´t consider it vulgar but just a little bit course.

"Güey" is street slang for "guy" that started sometime after the 1960s. It comes from "buey" ("ox" and always derogatory when calling a person this). I personally don´t like "güey" or use it, but I don´t feel offended if someone calls me that because it´s in the context of friends usually. "Pinche güey" could be or not be a friendly term, depending on the relationship of the people involved.

Much more informative! - modrak, Feb 12, 2013

Answer 2

After a quick google search, it doesn't seem too nice! :p

It's Mexican slang and means something like, "F---ing guy/idiot/etc." However, some of the pages I look at argue at the severity of the word "pinche." Some equate it to F-ing while others say it's more like rotten or lousy. However, I believe in the context you have provided, it is meant to be vulgar.

hi modrak thank u for ur time. i tried looking on my own but cany seem to find any. my apologies i really dont know its meaning. i meant no harm. - twelve13, Feb 12, 2013

No, it's okay! Words are only words to me. I believe learning profanities is important in learning another language, considering they will show up a lot in informal speech. - modrak, Feb 12, 2013

That reminds me, I remember a time when I asked about song lyrics on here and they turned out to be very dirty! AHAHA. Have a goodnight/day/etc. :) - modrak, Feb 12, 2013
