pagar (un apuesto) Explanation: The phrase is incorrectly spelled (should be ante up; it's usually pronounced with the t very soft or absent) and used. In gambling, to ante up is to put the ante, the first bet in a hand of poker, into the pot. It also has an extended sense, to contribute towards an expense being shared among a group of people, for example to buy someone a present. |

pechar, aflojar, apoquinar, atochar Explanation: Hola. "Aposté por los Steelers y gané. Ahora Lucy tiene que apoquinar". Never heard it but it's got to be "to pay" (pagar, slang versions above) as Lucy lost the bet. May come from "annuity" or from "ante up", synonyms of "pay" and "to pay", Roget's says. Verrrrry slangy. Good luck :) Roget's Thesaurus Actual sin�nimos |
