Usage notes
[edit]- As with its masculine form, vieja may mean "a certain woman", also "a female sexual companion or partner", or "sweetheart, honey", but may have a derogative context, especially when applied to a woman unrelated to the man who says it, or when using a negative tone or said with sexual connotation.
