estar tostado/tostadisimo (roasted-very roasted)
estar mamado (to be sucked)
estar colocado (to be put)

estar ebrio
estar beodo
estar alumbrado (lightened up)
estar achispado (no drunk but merry)
estar bolo (bowl)
estar caneco, tener un caneco
estar briago
estar ajumado
tener un buen melocoton (to have a good apricot)
tener una moÃ±a.....

And I suppose there will be much more regional variations I am not aware...and several more checking a thesaurus....but there is only one word for hungover that I know (hangover??) = resaca

I think I need some Spanish lessons.. there are a few there I've never heard before

Re: Understanding Spanish

Thanks. That's a fairly comprehensive list. Una resaca de mil demonios, eh?

In the UK there is a book called Roger's Profanisaurus which is dedicated to vulgar synonyms. A lot won't make sense, but some are very good.
