pa' 'ca ¿Que significan estas palabras? Can you please explain to me what do Spanish words like pa' and 'ca mean? For example, there's a song title "Vente pa' 'ca". Are they some kind of abbreviations? Is there more such words? In what situations/locations can they be heard or used?

They are very common abbreviations for "para aca". They are used colloquially in much of Latin American (not sure about Spain). People often shorten para. Another song is "Es Pa' Ti, Mi Vida". Another common shortened phrase is "mijo" (mi hijo, or mija). Depending upon where the speaker is from, many people cut out the d near the ends of words. For example, "Estoy cansao." As with your first example, you probably would not hear this in formal language and not everyone does it. There are lots of common shortened words. I'll just write the shortened version—see if you can figure out what they mean. Mijo, ¿por qué hiciste eso? Ayúdame con esto, por fa. Ta loco, mano, ¿o qué? Lastly, there are tons of words that seem a lot less informal, which are shortened often: moto bici profe uni tele These are just a few examples of a TON of shortened words out there, and they vary from region to region. Espero que esto te ayude, aunque sea un poco. :)

Hi pa' is used as a kind of contraction for "para" and ca' is used for "acá" so "vente pa' ca' " means "vente para acá", "acercate" At least in Mexico it is a regionalism, we use " ven pa' ca' " for example when a mother calls his son "Hey Daniel ven pa' ca' " and we don't use to write it if it is not a very informal situation.

Hello Damián Pa' comes from para Ca' comes from acá (a synonim of aquí) Pa' ca'= para acá= hacía aquí The song Vente pa' ca' means "vente aquí". This is very informal language.

Sorry! I wrote in the comment.:) "pa´ca " its abbreviations of word spanish "Para" and "aquí" its the same meaning to say "Come here" used only speaking never formal writing. It can be used when you are in some place and want other person meeting with you in that place , you can tell it "" Veni para aca" "vente pa´ca" or other meaning is be near with me and approach to me.
