I’m looking for a list of pool words in Spanish. Any ideas where to look? Thanks in advance.
So, is the area of a pool table above the headstring referred to as "la cocina"?
Chinga... is more common.Fallar
Pronounced,
Fie yar

Saying chinga is like saying shit
I was under the impression that it meant the "f" word.Saying chinga is like saying shit
That is how the koreans around my zone start the game too.I've played 3C several times in Mexico and you can get by with just a few words:
Play some? -- Jugamos?
A game? -- Un juego?
How many points? -- Cuantos puntos?
Black or white? -- Negro o blanco?
Good shot -- Buen tiro!
Thank you -- Gracias
At least at the room I've played at, if someone asks you to play it is assumed the loser will pay time, which is really not a big deal because table time is relatively inexpensive. The only other oddity I've seen is that to begin a game you choose black or white and the other guy throws all three down the table and whichever one comes back closest to the rail has won the lag. 25 points is the usual game.
