SPANISH: Telo ‡
‡ ) “[Love] Hotel”...
NOTE: “Telo” is Argentina’s equivalent to
Japanese love hotels, w/ rooms
rented by the hour for morning or noon or afternoon delight ; Argentina, as Japan,
has a premium on living space... & w/ 20-somethings often still
living w/ their parents, a “Telo” is preferable to the back seat of a car. & of course clientele includes
yr garden variety adulterers & philanderers. The Argentine slang seen here
is the Spanish equivalent of the French street argot known as Verlan....
