Brazilian Pat, 'xavecar' means 'dar em cima de alguém', tentar 'ganhar' alguém no papo , na conversa....paquerar, flertar have close meaning, but it's not exactly that... é chegar junto,levar um papo...and if lucky...você 'fica' com a garota. Got it now?...Like Rick has already mentioned...'to hit on somebody' (AmE)...fits like a glove in this case. I know here in Sampa it's a very common expression. Are you in Brazil Pat? where are you? state/city?
Take care, Lou |
