Naco

Naco (fmn. naca) is a pejorative word often used in Mexican Spanish to describe bad-mannered and poorly educated people. A naco is usually associated with lower socio-economic classes, but could also sometimes include the nouveau riche. Vocabulary that is considered naco includes: "Chale" - used to express dismay "carnal" - most commonly to refer to a brother, but may refer to a friend, depending on the setting. cámara - literally means "camera". It is used as a synonym of "OK". "verga" - "penis" when used as a noun, may also be used as an interjection to express worry. "chingón" and its politer equivalent "chido" - equivalent to the aesthetic "cool" "nave" - literally "ship", used to refer to a car. "wey" - fella', buddy.

Naco: "Damn, I am so fucking hungry man, give me some tacos please." Naco: "Puta madre, tengo un chingo de hambre wey, dame unos tacos por favor."
