Help with my spanish

i need some help! A spanish girl told me that "Pompe" means you have a puffy ass like J-lo. Pregnant women can be called "Pompe". Like if a chica is walking past i can say "Hey! Bella pompe!".

Is this right? Or does "pompe" mean ass?

Also, how do I pronounce it correctly. Ive been told its like "pompie".

Well Mate, The word "Pompe" does not mean anything for Colombians, this is just one of the spaniard slangs known just for spaniards. I suggest that you should go to any caffe nero where you may find a lot of spaniards and ask them.

in corrocho spanish we don't use "pompe" we called it "cipote jopo" "tremendo culazo" "nojodaaaa que cagadero mas lindo" etc. it varies with towns.

Ah! Probably you meant "pompis" that means "ass", then if a girl is passing by you and she is moving her ass..ets about, you could tell her "bonitas pompis", but....pompis is to cute, may be to sissy if coming from a man and so nice if coming from a woman. Well, that is what it means in Colombia, actually it does not mean a puffy ass. But as I have said in other posts, the slangs may not have the same meaning in every spanish lenguage country.

ahah! well thanks guys for the help. I would have looked a bit stupid saying "hay bella pompe!" to all the ladies. I wouldnt personally say this to the london ladies coz I would expect to be spitting my teeth out afterwards hahhah!

hey guys, them birds in England don't like to be complimented? WTF is that all about? In Colombia, ignoring a girl is a freaking insult. You gotta compliment her, whether be her clothes or physical attributes, especially if is coming from you lads in England. I don’t recommend you do that with Latin girls in NYC, better yet, don’t even look at them, they don’t take kindly to unwanrranted compliments, but in Colombia, go for it!!

If you see a chick with a nice butt, I recommend hollering, "Quiero culiarte, mi amor!". Trust me, she'll love it.

Disclaimer: any comment I make is inane and is not to be taken seriously, and is so patently ridiculous that no one should take it seriously, even as an insult.

mucho gracias para ayudame con las chicas en colombia santo elmo i will really take those comments on board elmo when i get to colombia soon matey. you are cien por ciento on the fact that english girls dont like being paid compliments much and those girls in NYC too. the problem is the girls in my home city of london & NYC are so stuck up themselves most the time and have an attitude problem. english girls wouldnt like unwarranted attention on the metro cos they would think your gonna do some bad to them.

i definately think you can get away with cheeky sayings a lot more in latin america or in the coastal resorts more because firstly the people aer more laid back and not as stressed and secondly for 3/4 of the year in london/NYC the girls have to wear such boring clothes and cover themselves up, you never get to see the whole package anyway to give a compliment.....

how about gritando en las calles.........

tienes mas culo que una gata empinada....
puedes siento en mi cara con tu trasera, mi sardina....

yep! you are right Juanes. From my experience in london its better to say nothing and just look the other way hehehe! Things here are crazy. I was brought up the old fashioned way - to help ladies carry their bags and to always offer to help them. I used to take the train to work. One day, there was a lady in high heels dragging a massive suitcase up the stairs. It kept sliding back because she couldnt manage it. I said "Can i help you?" and she snorted and gave me an evil stare ! It happened a few times after that, so now i dont offer any help, unless Im asked.
