I am not asking for a translation of the actual English word "way".
I used to talk to some Mexican guys and they would always refer to each other as "way". At least that it how it sounds in English. For example, Que paso, way? or Cayete way! I think it is slang for fool in Spanish, can someone please tell me how to spell this word and what it means. Please answer if you are from Mexico especially.

I need to do a book review about a few books from mexico that are in Spanish. Can anybody offer me a few titles that I could choose from?

I moved to Georgia from Miami a year ago and I immediately noticed that people would just categorize me as a Mexican just because i look Hispanic and speak spanish. And no matter who much i try to explain to these people that just because one speaks spanish one isn't from Mexico( or Guatemala or anywhere from Central America) they don't get it.

So question is: Why do non-Hispanic Americans think that people who speak spanish come from Mexico?

(P.S. I'm Dominican-American)

I am ambitious.

I am Colombian.

A Mexican is from Mexico.

My Father is a dentist.

Are you Nicaraguan.

Yes, I am from Nicaragua.

I like autumn.

I like books.

The Philippines is a former Spanish colony they have been ruled by Spain for 377 years they have Spanish surnames but only 2% to 3% of Filipinos have Spanish ancestry i'm just wondering why Filipinos don't speak Spanish why did they abandon the Spanish language does anyone know why Mexico like the Philippines is a former Spanish colony they have Spanish surnames but i don't know what percentage of Mexicans have Spanish ancestry but Mexicans never abandoned the Spanish language they still speak Spanish how come Filipinos don't speak Spanish anymore why did Filipinos abandon the Spanish language the Mexicans never did they kept the Spanish language they never abandoned the Spanish language does anyone know why.

You get Mexicans who've been in the US for several generations, do they still speak Spanish? Many are in Mexico. People like Robert Rodriguez and Eva Longoria have roots in the US for ages, do they still speak Spanish??

Why do Mexicans not lose their language, while all the Germans, Irish, Italians etc cannot speak those languages in the US?

I know they are two different countries. Spain conquered Mexico in 1561 or something and Spain is Europe and Mexican culture is American. But, like is there a difference in the foods, culture, people, dialects of language, and traditions?

I know in Mexican Culture, there's the evil eye and quinceaneras? What about Spanish?

I always thought Latin America was where Latin people come from....let alone why Spanish is from Spain, not Mexico...

For example, is Gomez specifically Mexican? Is it originally Spanish? I assume since Spain conquered Mexico, Mexican names are really Spanish...

I saw on tv they having a conversation, for sure they were speaking mexican because they have that peculiar accent so i thought they were two mexicans until i knew the other guy was argentinian.

But i can be mistaken because argentina is far away from mexico.

I work at a mexican restaurant and the cooks gave me a nickname. I asked them what it meant and they said there's a comedy show in Mexico with a character that looks like me. They described him as the mexican version of larry the cable guy.
I don't speak Spanish but the name they call me sounds like "nun-yo."
Any idea what character they're talking about? I'm curious.

I'm a single guy, i'm 25 years old and I would like to go to mexico to visit and be a tourist. Now my Spanish is not so hot, but i'm wondering where would you recommend a single 25 year old guy who would be traveling by himself to go to around Mexico? I want to know of a safe place and interesting things to do? I hear there are a lot of robberies in Mexico and kidnapping of tourist, what do you suggest?

is the mexican accent different than the spanish accent in spain after spanish colonists lost mexico and the spanish still there?

Okay, please do not be offended, (no racism intended) but I've noticed that Mexican Spanish speakers tend to talk really fast and I have a hard time understanding them, but I can understand other dialects just fine, (Cubans, Argentineans, Chileans, Spanish, etc.)

So my final two questions are why can't I understand Mexican Spanish as well as other dialects and are Spanish speakers from Mexico known to have the fastest Spanish speaking dialect?

I am taking Spanish 1 at my college and we are doing a spanish project on spanish speaking countries like Spain and Mexico and telling the class a few things on each country. I wanted to bring in food for the class, but I wasn't sure of what to bring in. What are some food or appetizers that are tasty and it won't be too messy for a class around 20 that is affordable too?

It's pronounced "by-sah"...and here's the definition of it in Urban Dictionary:

1. bisa
a Mexican with a hard accent who just came from Mexico and lives in America as if they were still in Mexico, can be used to insult a Mexican

I don't think it's spelled "bisa" though. Any help, thanks.

I need this for a novel I'm writing--not to swear at someone. It needs to be Spanish as spoken in Mexico, not in Spain or other country where Spanish is spoken. Thanks

I hear and see a lot of stories of marriage between Spanish men and women from Colombia, Dominican Republic, Venezuela, Mexico,etc,etc
But why aren't there as much Spanish men/Latinamerican men marriages?

Why this difference?

And why Spanish men prefer Latin American women?
Is there a shortage of attractive women in Spain?

I need to come up with an activity that will last about an hour that my High School Spanish club can do about the Easter time of year that relates to how Mexico or Spain spends easter. It has to be school appropriate and not really religious.

I know it's very difficult for an immigrant to live in Mexico - they cannot get any welfare even after become a citizen, they must speak Spanish fluently, there is no bi-lingual education provided and only professionals (no labor workers) can apply for citizenship and they can't buy properties in good areas such as near the ocean. So if someone were found to live in Mexico without having qualified for all of the above and gotten a citizenship, what would the Mexican gov do to them?

This is Calvin. I know that the Mexican culture and Chilean culture are pretty similar. But my question is about what is the similarities between the people in Mexico and in Chile? People in both of these countries speak Spanist as primary language.

And what's the difference between these two countries? How are the cultures/traditional similar and differ from each other?

I went to a Mexican restaurant
It is owned by Mexicans, they serve Mexican food and the waiters even speak Spanish.
The restaurant atmosphere is also very similar to Mexico
However when I pay the Bill they refuse to accept Mexican currency.
Why did they do this?
Can they be sued? If so, under what law?

Do people honestly not realize how many countries besides Mexico speak spanish? I'm from Argentina and almost everytime someone finds out I speak spanish they ask me what part of Mexco I'm from. Not that I have anything against Mexicans it just bothers me.

Because i thought the Mexican flag would be similar to the Spanish flag since the Spanish conquered Mexico but why is the Mexican flag similar to the Italian flag the Italians never conquered Mexico does anyone know why.

if the states purchased in the LA purchase belonged to Mexico didn't all the people speak spanish?

i already know beginner mexican spanish, but i have been told that south american spanish is way harder to learn and understand. is this true? will i have a hard time if i go to argentina? if i learn spanish in argentina, will it be a piece of cake for me to talk in mexico?

Latin America, Spain, and Mexico all have different spin offs of the Spanish language correct? So how would you say 'I miss you' in a Mexican dialect? Or is that phrase the same in all areas? If so please still write out the translation. Thanks!

I def. do. I met these two guys today one was from Spain and the other was from Mexico. They weren't really all that cute but their accents were soo sexy! So do you find Spanish/Mexican accents attractive as well?
