뜻
To switch on the television.
문화적 배경
In Spain, 'poner la tele' is often associated with the 'Telediario' (news) at 15:00 and 21:00, which are sacred times for many families. While 'poner' is understood, you will much more frequently hear 'prender la tele'. Using 'poner' might mark you as a Spaniard. Similar to Mexico, 'prender' is preferred. However, 'poner' is used specifically when referring to a certain channel (e.g., 'Poné el trece').
Use 'Pon' for speed
If you are in a hurry to see something, just shout '¡Pon la tele!' It's the most natural way to react.
Gender Trap
Never say 'el tele'. Even though many tech words are masculine, 'tele' is strictly feminine.
