quatemalan spanish speaking people please help

Question

How would I say in your slang " I would watch out for that girl, if I were you."

Answer 1

Guatemala was a state of Mexico at one time, so from their history and a couple of Guatemalans I have known, I can say they speak just about the same as in Mexico.

I would watch out for that girl, if I were you.

Yo que tú, tendría cuidado con esa chica.

More slangy: Aguas con esa chica.

Guatemala was certainly a state of the United Fruit Company, subject to intervention by hirelings like Edward Bernays and the US military, but, apart from the period before independence from Spain, when a "state" of "Guatemala" as part of EUM? - EugenioCosta, Jun 30, 2013

It was part of the "First Mexican Empire" from 1821 to 1823 - 005faa61, Jun 30, 2013

I never knew Guatemala used to be part of Mexico. Thanks for that info! I'd vote you up twice if I could. :) - rodneyp, Jun 30, 2013

Answer 2

tendría cuidado con esa chica.

You could also shorten that to "cuidado con esa chica"

I also like to have fun with another slight variation:

Cuidado con ese señor, es un peligro

Watch out for this guy, he's trouble.

And if you saw Big Momma's House, the Spanish movie title was...

Mi Abuela es un peligro

It translates to something along the lines of my grandmother is trouble.

Answer 3

Cuidase de la malita.

Be careful of the bad girl. Watch out for the bad girl.

Oops, sorry. Costa Rica.
