Spanish & ChicanoVulgarDifficulty 2 of 3: Regional

Know it. Don't throw it. This is the real heat — here so you can clock it in a song, a comment, or the next table over. Take it for a spin and you'll find out who still wants to talk to you.

Definition

Pussy. Also, in some kitchens, a brown sugar. In street Spanish in California the sexual meaning usually wins, and it is not cute.

In simple English: A vulgar word for female genitals.

Examples

  • The sexual meaning is the one you will hear in the parking lot, not the candy.

  • This is a word to understand and not to try.

Usage notes

Genuinely profane. Documented so you can recognize it in music, the street, and group chats. Do not use it at work, with elders, or with people you just met. Recognize it in music and talk. Do not use it of a person.
