I am new to this forum but I have been confused about the word "Chulo" for some time now. I worked with some people from Puerto Rico and found it to be an expression meaning "cute" or "presioso" but was once reprimanded by an older woman for using the expression "!Que Chulo!" She told me in spanish, "Tu eres una mujer bien educada y intelligente. No es necissario para usar estas palabras!" Can someone please help?
Gracias Amy |
