it means RELIGION.

 

Ariba la raza means VIVA OUR RELIGION. It's a nationalistic pride thing.

La Raza = The Race.

 

"Viva La Raza" means "Long Live The Race." It's a Hispanic thing.

It means "Hispanic people and life of the new world"....In other words it's about pride and sharing the traditions with the rest of the world.

 

It does not mean "the Race" which excludes all other races

Stolen from somewhere:

 

The term "La Raza" has its origins in early 20th Century Latin American literature, and translates into English most closely as "the people," or, according to some scholars, "the Hispanic* people of the New World." The term was coined by Mexican scholar José Vasconcelos to reflect the fact that the people of Latin America are a mixture of many of the world's races, cultures, and religions - Europeans, Africans, and Native Americans; Arabs and Jews; "old world" and "new world." Subsequent scholars built on this idea, pointing out that no other area of the world had experienced such a mix of race and culture. Some people have mis-translated "La Raza" to mean "The Race," implying that it is a term meant to exclude others. In fact, the full term coined by Vasconcelos, "La Raza Cósmica," meaning the "cosmic people," was developed to reflect not purity but the mixture inherent in the Hispanic people. This is clearly an inclusive concept, meaning that Hispanics share with all other peoples of the world a common heritage and destiny, and that Latinos provide an example of a world in which traditional concepts of race can be transcended.

OK! Next Konan translation:

 

"I'm gonna get you strawberry fruit booties to toss my salad and peel my potatoes"

 

Ok, run that one through a translator for me...

It was always disturbing to hear Konnan say that as MYSTERIO and KIDMAN bounced around with him with a HUGE FUCKING grin on their respective faces...

 

Disturbingly Creepy.

I think and this is being honest...

 

Konnan needs to be a Manager in WWE...no wrestling of course but give him his own stable of Filthy Animals and it's good times again.

I used to mar out for that line he used to pull on Tygress every week

 

"Hey Tygress, you like my new shirt. Feel.....Das Enuuuuuuuuuuuuuf"

 

Funny thing is that Konnan was actually a pretty good damn worker in Mexico and WCW when he debuted. He just went to shit for some reason

Well... "Bout It, Bout It" came out(as a single) like 2 years before Konnan started using it.

 

As for what it means: "Bein' Bout it means that you down to do whatever."

What does ass mean in Spanish? Every time I try to convert it from English to Spanish, it always gives me "como", which actually is a common term used in Spanish which means "as".

Does anyone remember when WCW had their "press conference" to announce that Master P was coming to WCW, and Gene Okerlund did the introduction. "He's the singer and songwriter of 'I Miss My Homies..."

 

You don't know how odd it is hear that coming from Okerlund.
