A Monger's Guide to Spanish, 2nd Edition

RonJax2
Strip Club Connoisseur
Big Tech has done amazing things for language learning. But, it's algorithms are even more prude than your High School Spanish teacher. If you're learning Spanish to communicate with the Mexicanas of Tijuana or the Cubanas of South Florida, you'll no doubt find that Google Translate, ChatGPT, or Duolingo come up short when it comes to expanding your mongering vocabulary.

If you're a beginner at Spanish, this guide will give you some phrases to memorize to help you better communicate with Spanish-speaking dancers. If you're an intermediate, this guide will expand your vocabulary, especially regarding explicit terminology for the club and the bedroom, where you're likely to be deficient. If you're an advanced Spanish speaker, I welcome your feedback in the comments. I'm still an intermediate Spanish learner myself!

In first edition of this guide, I focused solely on Tijuana and included phrases helpful for dealing with Taxistas, Viajeros, Meseros, and Recepcionistas. For the sake of brevity, I've eliminated much of the taxi, hotel, and restaurant banter from this edition. This version focuses deeper on conversing with dancers from the bar to the VIP room. It should be useful for both Tijuana enjoyers and those dealing with a Cubana invasion at a home club in the US.

...But now I live in San Diego... / Pero ahora vivo en San Diego.

📝Grammar Tip: Spanish speakers usually drop the subject from their sentences when a verb's conjugation makes the subject redundant. If you like, you can still explicitly use the subject for emphasis, and this is grammatically correct. (Yo soy de Estados Unidos, ¿De dónde eres tú?) But, you'll sound more fluid dropping the subject in most cases. (Soy de Estados Unidos, ¿De dónde eres?)

I'm... / Soy...
...a farmer / granjero
...an engineer / ingeniero
...a mechanic / mecánico
...a banker / banquero

...feeling a need to smash you / ganas de estrellarte ("Estrellar" means "to star" or "to crash", but in this context means "to smash" or "to bang.")
...curious about getting dances with you / curiosidad por bailar contigo

📝Grammar Tip: Spanish has two verbs for "to be." Ser (Soy, Eres) is used for more permanent states of being, like your profession or physical characteristics. Estar (Estoy, Estás) is used for temporary states, like how you are feeling. To complicate matters, in Spanish the verb Tener (to have, as in Tengo, Tienes) is used to express physical needs, such as your primal need to smash that chica.

(Spanish speakers will use "backpack" metaphorically in the same way we might use "baggage." If you want to be abundantly clear you're speaking metaphorically, you could also say "mi mochila emocional.")

👉 Learning Technique: Each time you have a conversation in Spanish where you can't find the words, do the following. Make a mental note of the theme or topic that had you stumped. Later on, do some research and write a few paragraphs in Spanish about the topic you got stuck on. The next time the same conversation comes up, you'll have something to say.

📝Grammar Tip: Gustar is one of many Spanish verbs where the subject and object are inverted. "Me gustan los bailarinas mexicanas" literally translates to "Mexican dancers are pleasing to me" even though most translators would tell you this phrase means "I like Mexican dancers". When using Gustar, the verb agrees with the subject, which is the thing that is pleasing, not the person who is pleased. So, we use "Te gustan" to talk about plural things like foot rubs, while using "Te gusta" to talk about singular subjects like having anal sex. Other examples of Spanish verbs that follow this form include Encantar (to love), Interesar (to interest), Molestar (to bother), Parecer (to seem), Faltar (to lack) and Preocupar (to worry). Here's a few more examples to drive this point home:

* I like DATY / Me gusta el buceo
* I like you / Me gustas tú
* I like your toes / Me gustan tus dedos de los pies

📝Grammar Tip: Notice the subjunctive present tense of Gustar in the example "Busco una chica que le guste..." The subjunctive tenses are used to express hopes, dreams, doubts and uncertainties. In this case we use the subjunctive because we're talking about a hypothetical chica who might like anal. Many language learning programs won't teach you subjective tenses until you're much more advanced as you can still communicate effectively (albeit, incorrectly) without them. However, if you're a PL learning Spanish for the purposes of the club, you should embrace learning the subjunctive tenses. In the club, you'll be talking a lot about hopes, dreams, and uncertainties. Below are two sets of examples of the subjunctive tenses. The first three use the subjunctive present tense for the subordinate clauses, the second three employ the subjunctive imperfect.

* I want you to enjoy yourself / Quiero que disfrutes
* I hope we can do some dances / Espero que podamos hacer algunos bailes
* I hope I won't have to use the subjunctive today / Espero que no tenga usar el subjuntivo hoy

* If only you had subtitles, like on Netflix / Ojalá tuvieras subtítulos, como en Netflix
* I wish I had brought the weed with me / Ojalá tuviera la mota conmigo ahora
* If I had a million dollars, I would make you my sugar baby / Si tuviera un millón de dólares, te haría mi sugar baby

You aren't my type / No eres mi tipo
Thanks my lovely, but I'm going to meet other girls / Gracias corazón, pero voy a conocer otras chicas
I'm going to the bathroom, I'll find you later / Voy al baño, te encontraré más tarde
I'm going to take a walk through the club. See you later / Voy a dar una vuelta por el club. Hasta luego

Wait for me here, I'll be back / Espérame aquí, volveré
I'm not ready, not yet / No estoy listo, todavía no
I'm ready, let's go! / Estoy listo, ¡vamos!
Are you ready? / ¿Estás lista?
¡Vámonos! / Let's get out of here!

👉 Conversation Tip: Struggling to keep up with a fast talker? One tactic to keep the conversation alive is to just repeat the words you do understand, even if you missed the broader meaning. I've found I can get by for quite a while with this technique, so long as my own understanding of the conversation isn't essential. For example:

Her: Cuando era niño en la escuela, el maestro siempre estaba enojado conmigo, así que no me gustaba ir.
You: ¿El maestro?
Her: ¡Sí! Siempre era muy exigente y siempre me daba tarea extra.
You: ¿Tarea?
Her: Sí, por eso dejé la escuela, no fui a la universidad y me convertí en bailarina.
You: ¿Bailarina?
Her: Sí, llevo cinco años bailando y ya! Quieres un baile?
You: ¿Un baile? ¡Por supuesto!



##### Joking Around / Bromeando #####

Knowing a few cheesy jokes in Spanish is a great way to keep things light and fun. Here are a few that work for me:

Want to hear a bad joke? / ¿Quieres escuchar un mal chiste?
OK. Why are us gringos so good in school? / Bueno. ¿Por qué los gringos somos tan buenos en la escuela?
Because we kill ourselves studying! / ¡Porque nos matamos estudiando!

Want to hear another bad joke? Alright. / ¿Quieres escuchar otro mal chiste? Bueno.
In a U.N. meeting, a congresswoman asks a question: / En una reunión de la ONU, una congresista hace una pregunta:
"With honesty, what is your opinion about the shortage of food?" / "Con honestidad, ¿cuál es su opinión sobre la escasez de alimentos?"
Africa says: "What's food?" / África dice: "¿Qué son alimentos?"
The US says: "What's a shortage?" / Estados Unidos dice: "¿Qué es escasez?"
Mexico says: "What's honesty?" / México dice: "¿Qué es honestidad?"
And Cuba says: "What's an opinion?" / Y Cuba dice: "¿Qué es opinión?"

*** The Tocar Joke ***

This my favorite joke, which I've successfully tested in battle with Mexicanas and Cubanas. It's both funny and flirty if delivered right. The joke relies on that fact that in Spanish, you use the verb "tocar" (to touch) to talk about playing an instrument.

You: ¿Tocas algún instrumento?" / Do you play an instrument?
Her: En realidad no. Solía ​​tocar el violín cuando era joven. ¿Y tú? / Not really. I used to play the violin when I was younger. And you?
You (while sliding a hand up her leg): Sí. Toco la guitarra, el piano, el bajo, e a veces toco la batería. Pero lo que más me gusta tocar es una chica hermosísima como tú. / Yeah, I play the guitar, the piano, the bass, and sometimes the drums. But my favorite thing to play is a very beautiful girl like you.

##### Three Tips on Pronunciation / Tres Consejos Sobre la Pronunciación #####

I wanted to offer three tips on pronunciation that may be particularly helpful to beginner and intermediate Spanish speakers. Though pronunciation a complicated topic, these are of three most useful tips I've found on my learning journey.


*** Las Letras 'R' y 'RR' ***

Most consonants in Spanish sound fairly similar to their English counterparts. The letter 'R' is a big exception.

In English, our 'R' is gutural, the tongue stays on the floor of the mouth. Try it by saying ARRRR like a pirate. Notice that your tongue is not a part of the action when you make this sound.

In Spanish, the tip of your tongue should touch the roof of your mouth just in behind the teeth when you say the letter 'R'. It's almost more like saying the letter 'D' in English. Try pronouncing these words out loud, but replace the Rs with Ds: hablar, escuchar, y decir -> hablad, eschuchad y decid. You're sounding better already, right?

Practice by repeating slowly phrases with the R sound in them, such as "Preferirías esa refrigerador?"

Let's make things more complicated. When an 'R' is at the beginning of the word, or there's a double r, the sound is rolled. To make this sound, place your tongue on the roof of your mouth, while making an "uhh" sound and exhaling rapidly causing your tongue to buzz against your palette. Practice this sound frequently by buzzing some "rrrrrrr" sounds as you're driving around town. Or practice a tongue twister with lots of /rr/s: "Ron corre rapidamente a trevés el ferrocarrill."

If you're still puzzled, plug one of the tongue twisters above into Google Translate. Hit play to hear how it sounds in Spanish, then see if you can reproduce the sounds.


*** Las Letras 'B' y 'V' ***

In Spanish, these letters are said the same way, they are virtually interchangeable, and you should pronounce them both like the English 'B' but just slightly softer. "Vanessa, vamos a Valencia" should be pronounced like "Banessa, bamos a Balencia."

If stick with making all the 'V's sound like 'B's, you'll sound great. But if you want to sound just a little bit more authentic, you can do this: soften the sounds of 'V's or 'B's in middle of words when they are surrounded by vowels. Don't soften it these B/Vs totally to a V, but just a little bit softer like adding an 'F' in the pronunciation. Some examples:

Vocabulario -> Bocabfulario
Vivir -> Bibfir
Beber -> Bebfer


*** Emphasis ***

Good news, the rules on which syllable to emphasize in Spanish in a word are pretty simple, certainly simpler than in English.

In general, stress is usually placed in the second-to-last syllable in a word. There are two exceptions:
* If a word ends in a consonant other than n or s, the stress is on the last syllable.
* If there is a written accent, the stress is where the accent is.

In reality, you're not going to want to be evaluating these rules on the fly when trying to have a conversation. Lots of practice listening is the solution to ensuring you emphasize the right syllables as you're speaking.

##### Additional Resources / Los Recursos Adicionales #####

Want to learn more? Here are some other resources for bolstering your mongering Spanish.


*** AI Powered Learning ***

Other than the problem of algorithmic censorship, it turns out that language-learning models are actually really good at teaching languages. There are two options worth trying:

* Duolingo Max: Extends Duolingo to offer personalized feedback and capabilities for roleplay. Very effective, but also quite expensive, it costs about $170 / year, on top of a Duolingo subscription that already costs around $90 / year.

* ChatGPT: You could spend hours just talking to "Guppy" about any topic you like in Español, then ask it to point out your mistakes and offer clarifications. ChatGPT is also really good at role playing. And it has the virtue of being free. (Though you may want to pony up for premium access at $20/month.)

Here's a prompt you could give ChatGPT to practice your conversational skills with a Mexican bar girl: Guppy, quiero jugar juegos de roles contigo. Finja que seas una mujer joven de Guadalajara que le guste el reggaetón, y imagina que conozcamos en un bar en Tijuana. ¿Estás lista? / Guppy, I want to play role playing games with you. Pretend that you're a young woman from Guadalajara who likes reggaeton, and imagine that we meet at a bar in Tijuana. Are you ready?

Just keep it PG so you don't get scolded by the nanny algorithms.


*** Books ***

* Dirty Spanish by Juan Caballero. A useful resource for Dirty Spanish across the globe. (H/T to @PutaTester for first recommending this book to me.)

* Cabo Bob's Definitive Mexican Slang 101. A great resource for the Tijuana enjoyer.


*** Media ***

* Music is a great way to bolster your dirty Spanish. Artists I would recommend listening to include Bad Bunny, Karol G, Peso Pluma, and most importantly Tokischa. Tokischa, a Dominican reggaeton and latina trap artist, writes lyrics so explicit it makes Cardi B blush.

* TV is another great way to learn jargon and other dirty words. Check out Narcos, Narcos Mexico, El Chapo, and the series Somos, all on Netflix. Make sure to turn on Spanish subtitles before you watch!

    Very detailed. Maybe TOO detailed, after spending 5 minutes just to skim it, I'm thinking, first, this is way too much effort, I'm going to a club for a fun time, not to learn another language. Also, connecting with my dancer is a big deal to me, struggling to communicate is not conducive to this. And while I realize you're talking about going to Tijuana, you also mentioned all the Cubans invading Florida clubs. My feeling on that, you move to another country, learn the language!

    ^ I hear you Alfredo. I get that this guide would definitely be intimidating for a beginner. I would suggest beginners just skim the guide for a few phrases you like and just memorize those. Like, memorizing a few of your favorite positions could pay off in the VIP room / Hotel room.

    Or for example this line: I'm just a bad boy and I'm looking for my bad bitch / Solo soy un bellaco y estoy buscando a mi bellaca

    Another good one is @PutaTester's favorite line: I'm learning to show respect for your country / Aprendo a mostrar respeto por tu país. This drenches the panties of chicas who are proud of their country.

    Just having one or two pickup lines like that on lockdown and no doubt your dancer is going to think it's hilarious (and certainly appreciate the effort.)

    I totally agree that Cubanas coming here should learn to speak English. And in fact, I think many are. And, it really takes a ton of time and practice to learn a language. If you look up the CEFR (an international standard for language learning), you'll learn that you can count on investing about 600 hours into learning, just to get to level B2, which is a level where you can have a conversation without showing much effort. But 600 hours is a lot of time! Many Cubanas in the US are stuck in the A2, B1 zone where they might understand more than it seems, but still struggle to articulate thoughts in English (beyond "wanna dance.") In other words, they are learning, it's just hard to see that at beginner/intermediate levels.

    Final point, as overwhelming as language learning is, I'm finding that it's loads of FUN. And I think good for my middle aged brain too. It's a lot of effort, sure. But studying Spanish is time better spent that playing video games or other more wasteful things I might be doing in my spare time. So personally, I'm gonna keep at it!

    Great guide! As mentioned, I live in an area with many Latinos, so if I chose to learn the language just for TJ, I still might do it, but I would be much less motivated. Alzheimer's and dementia do NOT run in my family (despite some friends and family arguing this point), but learning a foreign language helps keep the mind sharp in general.

    And your presentation is a lot of fun to read.

    I recommend everyone download and use the DeepL app. It tends to be much better and accurate than Google Translate, although it will still have its moments. Of course, nothing beats actually learning the language but that takes time.

    this is a highly valuable guide nowadays. most of the strip clubs have mostly latinas working in them now (thank the lord for this) as the number of english speaking dancers born and raised here are gradually decreasing each passing year. so now is the perfect time to be brushing up on the spanish language.

    So is "fuck" coger or chingar? Two choices were given. Are these taboo words that can't be spelled out in public?

    > So is "fuck" coger or chingar? Two choices were given. Are these taboo words that can't be spelled out in public?

    Coger is the very you want to use to talk about fucking in LatAm. Literally, it means to take. So:

    I want to fuck you already / Quiero cogerte ya

    Chingar is Mexican slang, and though a translate app will tell you it also means "to fuck" it has mellow rapey vibes and you should be cautious with it. Somewhere above I included a link to the history of the word, which is interesting, but in short, as a gringo you should be cautious with this word for it's rapey, colonialist conotations. You'll see chingar used in expressions that don't literally mean fucking more often than the actual context of sex, for example:

    Fuck yourself / Chinga tu madre (literally, fuck your mother)

    There's also the very Joder which can also mean to fuck, but usually is used more colloquially like:

    Don't screw around / ¡No jodas!

    In short though, to talk about actual sex, you want to use the verb Coger.

    Ron - epic write up. So many great phrases and tips herein.

    Your explanation just above in the comments about coger vs. chingar is spot on too.

    Coger is about sex whereas variations of chingar are more about ‘fuck off’ and ‘fuck, I just stubbed my toe’
