In Mexico, people use a typical but informal expression to say 'Be careful'. This expression is very similar to 'Watch out' or ‘Beware’. It’s only one word ‘Aguas’. The literal translation in English is ‘Waters’. If you are in Mexico and you listen to someone to say you ‘Aguas’, it means you need to take careful for something. An example would be ‘Aguas con el coche/ Watch out for car’.

Hahaha I have been in Mexico before and I find that expression very funny, just like the guuy shouting in the street outside stores or restaurants "pásele, pásele"
