Chigüines
How you? Well, I will begin by welcome you to the site, first...
And to answer your ??
Chigüines It is not a derogatory term in our country
We Nicaragüenses do not use it as an insult to anyone but as a friendly slang word or as an alternative of (boy, guy, friend) in a informal language, which It is used by particular groups of people who know each other, and is usually spoken rather than written.. so far that's what I know..
