Teto

"Teto" is a colloquial term used in Mexico to refer to someone who is nerdy, childlike, slow or has a weak demeanor, thus making this person some sort of social outcast. Also commonly referred to as ñoño. Tetos lack basic social skills and prefer to spend their free time studying, playing video games, or drawing anime characters. Their fashion icons include the old people that feed ducks at public parks and your dad's accountant.

Student: I hope the teacher forgets to ask for our homework lol Teto: *raises hand to remind teacher to collect homework*

Mirrey

Mirrey” is a colloquial term used in Mexico to describe a young male of European or mostly European descent from a well-to-do Mexican family. Mirreyes of Jewish and Lebanese descent are common, as well. They are more commonly referred to as fresas. During the first quarter of the 2010’s, a mirrey was characterized by his well-groomed appearance, half buttoned up shirts, wooden roseries/Star of David necklaces, and Italian leather loafers. However, as the second half of the decade approached, this ever evolving urban tribe began to dress down and take an interest in the environment. Although the more conservative mirreyes continue to dress similar to what they did the early part of the 2010’s, the modern mirrey has taken a more bohemian approach to his appearance. Now, a mirrey can be identified by his wavy, tousled hair, Birkenstock sandals, and the Tibetan Mala around their neck that they got on their last yoga retreat in Goa. Mirreyes are extremely traditional and will eventually ditch whatever trend they’re following to marry well and have good looking and well dressed children who will appear in society magazines. A true mirrey is well spoken, educated and would actually never use the terms “paps” or “mirrey” to refer to his friends. These terms are usually used by the wannabe working classes who aspire to be, what they would call, a Mirrey.

Traditional Mirrey: I haven’t seen you in ages! What happened to you?! You look like Jared Leto lol Trendy Mirrey: That’s probably because all my Chakras are aligned and I’ve been focusing on my homemade kombucha busin- Traditional Mirrey: I have to go to work.

Buchona

A colloquial term used in Mexico to refer to women of low social status who are, or aspire to be, mob wives. Buchonas tend to be very gaudy in appearance. Their long hair is always dyed either a cheap jet-black or a cheap, brassy "blonde". Their make up is heavy with thick, drawn-in eyebrows, bright rouge/blush, pale foundation, and red lips. Their bodies are heavily surgically modified and they love wearing long, acrylic, rhine-stone covered nails in hopes of attracting buchón men. They tend to drive around in large trucks or SUVs with tinted windows blaring banda or corridos, an awful musical genre that seems to appeal to the working classes and the flashy, new money crowds of questionable incomes. These women usually come from the northern Mexican state of Sinaloa but can, unfortunately, be found throughout the entire country and in certain parts of the United States.

Person #1: Ew, why did they allow that buchona in this restaurant? Person #2: They're probably scared of her buchón boyfriend. She thinks she looks good but she looks like an ugly, rural town version of Kim Kardashian that was stung by a thousand bees, fell in a radioactive lake and was rescued and dressed by a New Jersey hooker stylist.

Inventada

A term normally used by Mexican gay men to refer to delusional people who think they are public figures, influencers, fashionistas, or part of the wealthy elite. In most cases, inventadas come from poor, marginalized groups or are part of the gaudy, new middle-class. These delusional nacos are abundant on social media. Often posing with luxury items, they tend to show off what they once lacked...or still do. Inventadas also love showing off their many talents; whether it's speaking (badly) in a foreign language, singing, dancing or simply giving inspirational advice in a fake voice to hide their humble, regional accent. At the end of the day, they can't hide their mexa physical features. However, there is such thing as an "inventada con presupuesto". Meaning, an inventada with a large budget. These inventadas usually come from a middle to upper-class background and are conventionally attractive. Inventadas sometimes manage to forge a career out of their antics and even form a large following on social media. Their behaviour, though, always exposes how tasteless they truly are regardless of their budgets.

Sofi: "Ew, who are these trashy people and why do they have so many followers even though they look like they belong washing dishes at my father's restaurants?" Regina: "Gross. Romina Sacre? Jimness? Victoria Volkova? Those are just gatos who simply got lucky with social media and now they think they belong with la gente bien but they're just nacos with new money. Iuuuu! Let's hire them as our maids and remind them where they belong. Inventadas!"

Whitexican

An amalgamation of the English words "white" and "Mexican". The term is often used by SJWs in a derogatory way to refer to Mexican people who they consider to be "privileged" regardless of their ethnic background. Although "whitexican" is mostly based on what leftists deem as socially tone-deaf behaviour on someone's part, race is definitely a factor. "Mateo" or "Santi" are sometimes used interchangeably to refer to whitexican males and "Sofi" for females as they are considered common names amongst the "privileged".

Mexican 1: Want to go to that new yoga studio tomorrow morning? Mexican 2: Yeah, but let's take an EcoBici to reduce our carbon footprint. SJW: Must be nice! You filthy whitexicans don't even seem to realize that not all of us can afford to reduce our carbon footprint because we are forced to use the bus since it's cheaper. Also, yoga is for the people of India so maybe stop appropriating their culture, sweetie! *Goes on Twitter to rant about how she was just a victim of a micro-aggression by two evil white people*

Mexa

Mexa is a colloquial term used in Mexico to describe a Mexican belonging to the lower ranks of society or a Mexican with some of the stereotypical physical features associated with the indigenous groups of the country. They are more commonly referred to as "nacos". Mexas can be easily found throughout Mexico as they make up most of the population and are usually the ones crossing into the United States in search of work. A working-class mexa can often be seen taking public transport, wearing a football jersey or a t-shirt belonging to a political party. They are generally harmless, hard-working people who enjoy eating street food, drinking cheap beer and watching public television. A mexa belonging to the "new middle-class" usually wears gaudy brands and drives a flashy car as they believe this gives them social status and differentiates them from the rest. Their source of income is always questionable...or they own some form of blue-collar business such as a car wash or detailing company. "Buchón" and "Narco" are also acceptable terms to use for this group of people. Mexas are never accepted by the true middle and upper classes regardless of their socioeconomic status. They all seem to share a love for "cumbia" and "banda" music, breeding like rats, wearing a t-shirt to go swimming, adding an 'S' or a 'T' at the end of certain words, and being overweight. The equivalent of "Mexa" would be "Trailer Trash" in the United States, "Chav" in the U.K. or "Bogan" in Australia.

True Middle-Class Mexican #1: "Let's go to Acapulco this weekend" True Middle-Class Mexican #2" "Ew no, Acapulco is full of mexas! Let's go to Tulum, instead."

Fresa

Contrary to many of the definitions on here, you can only be considered a "fresa" if you're a well-bred individual from a well-to-do Mexican family of European or mostly European descent. Fresas of Jewish and Lebanese descent are common, as well. Young males belonging to this urban tribe are usually well dressed and resemble Mexican celebrity Diego Boneta or social media personality, Andres Zurita. Older male fresas usually resemble a variation of Mexican singer, Luis Miguel or his friend, Roberto Palazuelos. Female fresas are tall, thin, and soft spoken resembling Mexican celebrities like Camila Sodi and Anahi. The older ones resemble the likes of TV personality Ines Gomez Mont, or the pseudo-hippie "singer", Paulina Rubio. In their youth, both genders seem to have an obsession over pretending to be bohemian, wearing an eclectic collection of bracelets, going out to brunch, holidaying at exotic beaches (Thailand, Indonesia, Mozambique, or "locally", Tulum) wearing Birkenstocks and buying at organic markets. This usually fizzles out as they reach their mid-30's and begin to settle down. Fresas generally share a strong dislike over urban and regional music opting for a more "indie" pop/rock/electronica variety. Yes, fresas are often bilingual but a real fresa does not flaunt this. In fact, speaking "spanglish" is considered vulgar. Cheap imitators are often called "buchon", "naco", or "mexa".

Fresa #1: What are you going to do if insert politician here wins the election? Fresa #2: My grandmother is French, I'll just ask her to make me a French national and move to Paris.
