Hello, I have a Chilean friend, maybe I could try some of these phrases with her, I think she will die laughing though!
Yeah, she'll probably get a kick out of it. I find Chileans here in Chile still are pleasantly surprised when I, (the gringa) use their slang, even though I live here and it's sort of a given I'll talk like them.
Normally the final "s" in sois is not pronounced and not written. Many people pronounce and spell terrible with an "i" in this context: Soi tirrible 'e pollo. The unpronounced 'e means that the proper sentence is actually: "eres terrible de pollo".
Readers beware that "rz" is just one consonant. If you have heard Mercedes Sosa saying Spanish rr then you know what I mean.
