Let me explain as it is in Mexico. The phrase means that knowing how to talk or charm (i.e. being a better chatterer) beats being handsome. That's what I consider the definition to mean.

You maybe correct and for that I gave you a point but showing respect for others and tolernace of their mistakes and faults goes a long way here - FELIZ77, Aug 3, 2010

"Verbo mata carita". Meaning that words are stronger that good looking. Example: You see a nice looking girl with an ugly man, people would say "verbo mata carita", the girl preferred an ugly man that talks nice to her than a good looking that doesn't have any brains.

Bola de babosos, "Vervo" is knowing how to talk to a girl, and "carita" means being attractive, therefore "i may not look so good but i know how to get a girl". Get It.

haha, this is the only right answer. This is slang, you cannot take "verbo" for its dictionary definition - 2crudedudes, Jun 21, 2011

Actually, the Mexican phrase is usually something like "Billetera mata carita," or "'Casaca mata carita y billetera mata las dos.? You can plug in whatever attribute you want, implying that it is more important than good looks in finding a mate.

"El verbo mata carita" sounds odd to me, but it may be a joke of some kind. Literally, "The verb beats good looks," but it may mean that someone who speaks well wins out over someone who is handsome.

And the question is...?
The words "mata carita" appear to mean "kill little face" or "bush little face" (both nonsensical(. I don't know whether they mean something else in other regions' slang.
