1. Cochino/cochina (depending on gender) is literally a filthy person or slob. You'd probably say it to someone doing something unsavoury.
2. They are using a shortened version of 'mi hija' / 'mi hijo' which is 'my daughter' / 'my son'.
3. "El Cucuy" is boogeyman.
4. 'A la verga' is best translated to 'to hell with it'
5. 'Baboso' is like calling someone a retard / idiot.

You were being insulted, whether in a mean or a friendly manner I can't say. 'Marica' is a Spanish street word for a male homosexual, 'mariposa' means butterfly, 'puno' you possibly misheard for 'puto' which means male prostitute, 'beso' means a kiss. I'm not familiar with 'mocoso'. "Loco' means crazy. Think twice before going out swinging. Young Latino males have a cultural impetus to hurl out epithets such as these, but more often than not there is no serious intent behind them.

Hmmm, Mexicans and Central Americans have a slightly different dialect than Caribbean Hispanics and South Americans but I'll do my best.
Cochina/cochino is "pig", literally a slob or filthy person.
I have no idea about meha/meho.
A gogoey is their version of the boogey man.
A la verga - well verga is the slang of penis, so a la verga is kind of like f*ck it.
vovoso? do you mean baboso which means silly or dumb

1. Generally means a pig. But when describing a person, it means 'dirty'. Could be dirty-minded, or just filthy in general. Lol!
2. Mija/Mijo: Short for "my son" or "my daughter". Very affectionate term.
3. El Cucuy: mexican boogeyman. Hahaha.
4. **** it.
5. Baboso: Idiot

a la verga: at/in the yard
vovoso: is probably bobo and that is silly or foolish
