A Guide to Venezuelan Slang

Venezuelan Spanish is known for its colorful slang. Common expressions include: “Chamo/a” (dude, kid), “Pana” (friend), “Chevere” (cool), “Fino” (great), “Ladilla” (annoying), “Burda” (very). “¿Qué más?” is a common greeting meaning “What’s up?”. “Epa” is used to get attention. “Así así” means so-so. Remember that Venezuelan slang can be quite expressive, so pay attention to context and tone when using these terms.
