Hey everyone! I'm still trying to get a handle on Mexican slang. I hear 'chido' and 'padre' used all the time. Sometimes they seem interchangeable. But are they really the same? I need some help figuring this out.
Yeah, I agree with you there. "Chido" does seem to pop up more often, honestly. I've heard "padre" used too, but it feels a little less frequent day-to-day here in Playa. Good observation!
Oh, that's interesting! It's good to know "padre" might be less common in Playa. I hear both a lot here in CDMX. Maybe it varies by region more than I thought. Thanks for sharing!
¡Buena pregunta! Yo también me hice esa duda al principio. En general, sí, se usan parecido. "Chido" lo escucho más, como que es más común.

Jaja, sí, creo que sí cambia por región. Aquí en Guadalajara también se oyen mucho ambos, como en CDMX.
Ha! That's so interesting to hear. Guadalajara and CDMX sound similar then. It really does seem to be regional. Good to know!
Jaja, sí, @lucia-garcia. Aquí en GDL se usan un montón ambos. Tienes razón, es más por región.
