Who knows Spanish?

[ckay87]

DH just returned from Mexico with shirts for everyone. Gives one to DS, 10 that says "vengo por ti" and has a little devil on it. I ask, "what does that mean?" He says, "I don't know."

I am not letting DS wear a shirt with a little devil on it captioned by something I don't understand! Are ya nuts?

So I did the online translator thing and I get the results "I come by you." So it's apparantly slang that doesn't translate accurately by computer.

So ... I sure hope I don't regret asking this here. If it's awful, you can PM me. I don't know how awful it could be on a kid-sized shirt, but nowdays, who knows.

I wouldn't wear it .... if you know what I mean. Change the 'BY' to "for".

Lots of different meanings but if it has a devil on it I'm sure it means the worse.

It means "I'm coming for you."

I think a closer translation would be 'for' rather than 'by me'.

 

[WebmasterMaryJo]

It means "I'm coming for you."

I agree. It's a little devil that says "I'm coming for you"


It could be referencing something in a song or something from "Monkey Island" - but not sure.

It means "I'm coming for you"

"Vengo por ti" means .... Im coming for you.

Nothing bad, don't worry.

No slang doesn't translate, but that is not slang.
