"No pos ta cabrón" is a common Mexican Spanish slang phrase. It's a versatile expression with a range of meanings, primarily conveying surprise, disbelief, admiration, or even frustration depending on the context and tone.
Here's a breakdown:
Literal Translation: "Well, it's tough/difficult." However, the literal translation doesn't fully capture the nuanced meaning.
Meaning and Usage:
"Cabrón": The word "cabrón" itself is a vulgar term (meaning "male goat," but used as an insult to mean "bastard" or "asshole"). However, in this phrase, the intensity is often lessened, becoming more colloquial and less offensive. The meaning of "Cabrón" itself depends on the context.
"No pos": This is a shortened form of "Pues" which essentially translates to "well" or "so". "No pos" is therefore an introductory interjection.
Regional Variations: While understood throughout much of Mexico, the frequency and nuances of its usage might vary slightly by region. This can be evaluated under "Regional Variations".
Level of Formality: It's generally considered informal and should be used with caution in formal settings or when speaking to someone you don't know well. This can be attributed to the "Level of Formality" of the slang.
