📍 pet names in spanish Eddie Diaz would or would not use (w context so you know why do or don’t use).
Before we start, let’s remember Eddie’s father is MEXICAN, so it only makes sense for Eddie to use pet names a mexican would use (even tho this thread is backed up with people
repeat after me:
ryan guzman IS mexican
eddie diaz IS mexican
yes i am mexican and i can confirm this; no, gringos pendejos cannot speak on someone’s nationality.
I don’t think any of you all understand that we react to ‘cariño’ and ‘querido’ the same way you (and yes us too) react to ‘Bucky’, IT’S THE SAME THING AND I NEED YOU TO UNDERSTAND HOW WE FEEL PLS
☀️ Amor / mi amor = my love.
☀️ Mi cielo = it translates to “sky” but people use it (or so they’ve told me, I wouldn’t know)
☀️ Guapo = handsome !!!!! (Someone said I should use ‘!!!!!’).
☀️ Hermoso = beautiful. This one is kind of tricky, we would need context to see if it can
❌ Cariño = This is mostly used in a sarcastic way. Like, when you’re trying to explain something to someone and trying very hard not to call them idiot to their faces. It’s bitchy.
❌ Querido = Who is Eddie? An old lady from the last century? This is just ‘vintage’ in not a
so they really said we’ve been having pretty chill and normal mexicans, let’s just drop some stereotypes that keep the negative narrative about them 🙂🙂🙂🙂

💖 Let’s finish this by saying Eddie SHOULD speak more spanish, and we (spanish speakers, there are plenty of us) are here to help if anybody asks. We appreciate what you do, so please understand if we feel a little ‘overprotective’ with our language. 🥺
📍 And PLEASE don’t make abuela use “Evanito”, it gives us the ickiest feeling istg. “Evancito” depends on the person. “Buckito”… let’s not go there.
“Ay caramba” is SO WRONG. It feels like a personal attack. A xenophobic one. 🙄
These are all insults and shouldn’t be overused.
✅ chingadamadre
✅ pendejo
✅ imbécil
✅ baboso (this can be affectionate)
✅ caray (this one is tricky, context is very much necessary before writing this one)
✅ cabrón
✅ no manches/no mames (again, context is necessary
📍 AND NOW let’s talk about something we spanish speakers have deal with for a long time. Again, I want to thank every writer who write the fanfics and stories we all love. You are all amazing.
It feels kind of hard to explain this because in the show we’ve barely heard Eddie
the fact that the first time buck fully rested after the lightning strike was on eddie’s couch is such an important thing i can’t stop thinking about because there’s a parallel with my otp 😭😭😭
Magnus robaba comida y ropa; Julian dijo lex malla, lex nula; Tessa y Will conocen el valor de los libros y Tessa no tenía ni para comer; Jem se aguantó las mamadas de Will por cinco años ¿y tú me dices que no leerían libros piratas o que me despreciarian si supieran que lo hago?
what hurt me in the break up was “We’re great together” because they are 😭 I’m sorry that dude made u so dirty, you will always be my favorite
