very	reflexive to get angry, very frustrated	with	demonstrative these ones	ingrate
	Pastparticiple Singular Masculine of the verb encabronar
Very	angry	with	these	ingrates
¹ “Bien” is a word that normally when translated is: “Well, good, fine” and similar significances, however, there are cases when the word “Bien” is used as an intensifier for emotions, feelings, actions, and things that are done. Let’s see some examples to illustrate better the idea. “Estoy bien molesto contigo” – “I’m really angry (mad) at you)” note how “Bien” is used to intensify that the person is mad or angry to the other person. “Estoy bien feliz porque pase el examen” – “I’m extremely happy because I passed the exam” this is another example of how “Bien” ends up intensifying an emotion.
² “Encabronao” from the verb “Encabronar” is a Mexican word adopted in Latin-American to express angriness, to be angry, mad at something, to be in a bad mood. When you are “Encabronao” you are really angry or mad.

Voice Test:

Word By Word Lyrics:

Proper noun	Adverb	Verb	Adjective
América	no	es	solo
America (the Americas)	not	to be (essentially or identified as).	sole, only, unique, single
		2nd Person Singular Indicative Present Polite of the verb ser
America		is not	oonly	the USA	,	buddy
⁷ “Papá” is normally translated as “Dad, father, father figure” sometimes in Latin-American the word “Papá” is used like the English friendly words “Bud, buddy, mate, dude”. Used in countries like Venezuela, Colombia, Cuba, Puerto Rico. Let’s see some examples to illustrate better the idea: In the “Barrios” – “Neighborhoods” generally people are informal and have colloquial manners when speaking, so it is normal when two people met to have conversations like this one: “¿Que más papá, que cuentas? – “What’s up buddy, what’s new?” “Papá” is not to refer to the other person's father, but as a very close friend or someone you have a certain confidence in, it may help to show trust to the other person. “Epale papá, ¿que necesitas?” – “Hey dude, do you need something?” Please note that using “Papá” in normal or formal conversations may result in looking disrespectful or as a vulgar person. Normally women don’t use this word when speaking as they might look manly or vulgar even in informal contexts, however, if there is a joking mood or the woman is speaking to someone very close it wouldn’t look that way.
