What's the meaning of Boludear?

Question

What does boludear mean?

Answer 1

I don't know how explain it but this seemed to me a good explanation (Extracted from Urban Dictionary)

This is probably the most used argentinian word. At first it was just a noun, to say to somone that he was really stupid, but now, you can use it to call your pal in a friendly way. Is used for a lot of things, and it has become a verbe: BOLUDEAR; in spanish, the conjuation will be YO boludeo, TU boludeas, EL boludea, NOSOTROS boludeamos, ELLOS boludean. Basicly means that you are not doing nothing. Also, in Argentina, this word is used to say you are mocking someone, using irony to make the other one looked like a stupid. The quivalent for the english "are you making fun of me?" "me estas boludeando?"

Que haces boludo!? Todo bien?!

What's up boludo? All rigth?

Sos un boludo terrible, la jodiste!

You are a terrible boludo, you ****ed it!

-Que estabas haciendo?

-Nada, boludeando.

-What wwere you doing?

-Nothing, boludeando(doing nothing)

so like burlar(se)? - gringojrf, Sep 9, 2014

Pablo, a few edits for you: "It is used for many things" (need It"); "it has become a verb" (not verbe); "Basically"(not basicly); "Basically, it means that you are not doing anything" (you can't use a double negative) - malbecblend, Sep 9, 2014

mm no exactamente gringo seria algo como 'tomar el pelo' - 'para de boludearlo (stop teasing him)' - 003e54f5, Sep 9, 2014

@malbecblend thank so much I c&p without check gramma, my bad :) - 003e54f5, Sep 9, 2014

Pablo: Also, better to say: "...using irony to make the other one (or someone else) look stupid." - malbecblend, Sep 9, 2014

Answer 2

It sounds like a word that comes from Argentina. Kind of like boludo.

I guess the equivalent of that here in Mexico is hacer pendejadas or hacerse pendejo

Answer 3

Accoring to the dictionary it is equivalent of "hacer tonterías".

PS: I have never heard this verb used here in Mexico.
