Google translate works well 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.

My Head Still Hurts
Last night Gail and I went to see a local production of "Avenue Q." Very funny. So after the show we're strolling along and come across an open air bar with a karaoke set up in the back and a 9' red clothed pool table in front. I haven't been...

Here's my last 3C expedition.
3B in Mexico
No, that wasn’t a mistake — “tres bandas” is “three cushion” in Spanish, so it’s 3B. Gail and I were down in Puerto Vallarta and there’s a pool room there called Los Molcajetes where I try and play 3C a few times whenever we're down there...

Pelota ocho, 8 ball.
Pelota nueve, 9 ball.
Pelota diese, 10 ball.
May have spelled some wrong, but you get the idea.

Saying chinga is like saying shit

I was under the impression that it meant the "f" word.
That is how the koreans around my zone start the game too.
