Calcos

Gitano calo word that means Shoes. First used in 16th century Spain then again in the Americas by Tirilones in El Paso Tejas (Chuco Town) around the early 1900's. The word spread Westward making it all the way to Los Angeles and then the rest of California around the late 1930's

"Put on your drapes ese vato, make them calcos shine"

Nawf Side

Is a retarded way of pronouncing or writing North Side. Started and made popular by RAP groups like Swishaa House from Houston Texas in the very late 90's. In some dialects of Southern Black English, north is pronounced like norf, a common feature of those overlapping dialects to treat th sounds as an f or v. NAWF has been also used to mock a Southern (Black) US accent. Real Chicanos and Mexican Americans do not use this spelling of the word, only in ratchet cities like Atlanta, Northern California and parts of Texas.

Hey ese, that lame vato doesn't even know how to Spell Northside Homie, he spells it NAWF Side... WTF ese?
