Re: Guide to Argentinian Spanish Used in this Forum

 

I don’t understand, if this is clearly an English Forum, why do some people post in Spanish or use the Google translator?

Re: Guide to Argentinian Spanish Used in this Forum

 

A small contribution, as far as I know, being a native Argentinean, a linguist and translator myself, gaucha means "very helpful", not astuta, astute, keen.

Capurro is a family name, never heard the word being used as fulano, So and So.

By the way, fulano means "John Doe" or anyone unknown.

I agree with: atorranta is not prostitute, rather a girl very easy to have sex with, without paying money
