what does machucando mean?

Question

i am assuming it is a spanish word considering it is the title of a song by daddy yankee, but i cant find it in any spanish dictionary. I am assuming that it is a gerund from the verb machucar but i cant find that either. any help!?

Answer 1

Machucando means smashing...............
Is like crushing something, like I crushed mi finger myself.

Answer 2

Hi!
"Machucando" means squashing something.
It is an expression also used when you are trying to do something and you are not doing it very well... for example: if an american is speaking Spanish poorly they say: "Oh! He's "machucando" the Spanish" (Está machucando el español).

I really don't have the lyric of the song you are reffering to in my head. But, at least in my country, that's how we use the word!

Goodluck!

Answer 3

You're right that it derives from the word machucar. Machucar means to 'break, or smash' something. Machucando refers to the actual action of 'breaking or smashing' something. Even though the word is spanish in origin, it is also used in portuguese, particularly portuguese spoken by Brazillians.
