Do you like to party? Explanation: Hi, Gillian-- vestirte a tu pinta = dress however you like tener tu platita = have (your own) money hacer cosas choras = do fun/cool things saber qué onda = know what's going on "a mi pinta" means "the way I like it" "platita" = "plata" = "dinero" Hope that helps!

dress the way you like, have your own money, do cool things Explanation: "saber qué onda" is not what´s going on. It means: Agarrarle la onda: to work sthg out. Estar en la onda: to be trendy, to be hip, to be with it, to be bang up to date. So saber qué onda is to know what´s up as regards fashion, behaviour, trends, and it´s related to having fun and fitting in. |

do you like to go out and have fun?? Explanation: Hi, Gillian-- Just thought I'd clarify something re "qué onda" and other stories.. In this (very chilean) context, "qué onda" should be taken to mean: what the deal is, and not, as I wrote earlier, "what's going on" nor what the other colleague suggests: "OK, es suficiente. Si quieres saber qué onda (what the deal is) con todo lo que te hemos dicho, navega un rato por aquí." You can say "¿qué onda?" and mean: 1) what's the matter?; 2) what's up?; 3)what's going on?; what is it about? "Onda" has many meanings on its own too,e.g. wave, fad, fashion, trend... Goos luck!
