सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
In Spain, 'quedar' often implies going for 'cañas' (small beers) or 'tapas'. It's very common to 'quedar' at a specific bar rather than at someone's house. While 'quedar' is used, 'verse' is extremely common. Also, 'ahorita' might be used when 'quedando', which can mean anything from 'in 5 minutes' to 'never'. Meeting for a 'mate' or an 'asado' is the ultimate way to 'quedar con amigos'. The 'previa' (pre-party) is a vital social ritual for younger generations. Socializing often revolves around family and close friends. 'Quedar' is used, but 'parchar' is a very popular slang term among youth for 'hanging out'.
