message: I'm from Buenos Aires and I've got yet to hear "chele" meaning leche (milk). I was born in 1979, is it a word which is no longer used? SpiceMan 10:03, 4 Dec 2004 (UTC)

message: There is a relatively new slang word gaining popularity. Because of the aspirated s used in Buenos Aires, in the word rescatate (save yourself) the letter s can sometimes be lost and sound like recatate (be careful, observe modesty). The meaning is unclear too. For example, if someone is being provoked, he can be answering rescatate (save yourself [from the beating I'm gonna give you]), or recatate (be careful [because you will get hurt]). So the word itself is unclear. While recatate appears to be a more appropiate term, because of its meaning, people seem to think that they're saying rescatate. Recato (modesty, caution) is more formal, while rescate (rescue) is a more widely used. As the people who started using this word (lower class people, villeros) are mostly uneducated, "rescatate" is what they claim to pronounce.
:I find it hard to believe. In any case, it has also little to do with Lunfardo. Lunfardo is an Argentine argot, not just any Argentine argot. Mariano(t/c) 08:41, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Hey. We Argies tend to pronounce "rescatate" as "rejcatate". Could it be the influence of Evangelical preachers? They do teach recato. elpincha 08:59, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

message: XGustaX, what makes you think in the firs place that the word was taking into Spanish from Portuguese and not directly from Guaraní, given the fact that the aboriginal language is also spoken in Argentina??? Here you have a source that gives the Lunfardo term a direct Guaraní origin  as most do.
I have also noticed that in the edits you have been making to Wikipedia, you tend to remove Native American connections to the Argentine culture; please, try to avoid letting your personal appreciations to bias your contributions, such as in here. --Mariano(t/c) 13:29, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The fact that it appears in a Spanish/Portuguese dictionary doesn't make it come one from the other. The word is also present in the Spanish language. --Mariano(t/c) 17:11, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

message: I was born in the Provincia de Buenos Aires and lived in the city of Buenos Aires from age 2 to age 18.  At that time, yira (also spelled gira) meant primarily a "woman that runs around" ("slut", or "woman of ill repute"), not to "go for a walk".  I don't believe that the meaning has changed.
The term originated from the tango by Enrique Santos Discépolo, "Yira...Yira...". The "yira" part of the tango lyrics refer to the rotation of the earth, implying that the world does not care about human suffering, it just rotates and rotates.  The term was later applied to prostitutes "making the rounds", referring to the fact that they could not stay on one spot lest they be caught by the police — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:44:C500:3CD:29AC:7AF4:C3AF:F16F (talk) 15:11, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
