Resident Evil 4 spanish explained...

I was reading another forum and came up on someone translating some of the things that the villagers say in the game. So, I thought maybe some of you would like to know too. I'm Puerto Rican, so my first language is spanish.

Anyway, just ask what you wanna know and I'll try to translate to the best of my ability.

And just to get you started, the first guy you meet in the cabin says, "Que carajo haces aqui, cabron?" Which basically translates to "What the hell are you doing here, mother f****r?".

Detras de ti, imbesil! - Behind you, imbecil!

Ayi esta! - There he is!

Morir es vivir - Death is life or to die is to live

Muere Muere Muere - Die Die Die

Cojerlo - Correct me if I am wrong but doesnt his mean literally "Fuck Him" or "Screw Him"

Mierda - Shit

Depending on the context. What you said is one meaning. The other is "to grab."

Although, judging from the other quotes, your interpretation is probably the correct one

"Matalo" means "kill him". Also, when they're chanting "muere, muere, muere" they're saying "die, die, die". Nice mantra. They also chant "morir es vivir, morir es vivir", which is "To die is to live, to die is to live". Of course, when I heard them say that I helped them out with a shotgun blast to the head... oh yeah! they're living now!

Oh, it's "matalo". I thought they were saying "platano" and was wondering why they were saying banana.
