Salvi

This term was invented in the United States to refer to someone from El Salvador. It shortens the ethnic identity term "Salvadoran." Although many American Salvadoran youths use this term, not all Salvadorans identify with the word "salvi," simply because it is tasteless, borders an ethnic slur, and disfigures the official ethnic term of Salvadoran.

"Eww you're a dirty salvi?" - chicano

"Nicknaming a person by disfiguring their ethnic identity term can be offensive, such as referring to someone as a 'jew,' a 'jap,' or even 'whitey.' Many Salvadoran Americans choose to be recognized as purely Salvadoran; nothing less."

Salvi

Salvi is a mystery. Her words don't follow her actions. However, Salvi will turn you up ;) or cheer you up. If you want to get in trouble she is the right person to do it with since she is such an adventurous woman. BUT don't take her for granted because if she is fed up you will regret losing her.

She: I made it clear about my feelings.
He: She broke up with me and kissed me at the same time. She is such a Salvi !
