Spanish Definition Missing[edit]

The interjection (which is probably used mainly among teenage boys) is missing. My Spanish-speaking friends use it constantly, in an entirely non-pejorative way. They mostly come from Columbia, but also from Mexico (and my Brazilian friends also use it). The meaning is the same as the definition given here, but the usage is entirely different.

Are you sure it’s not just the vocative of the noun? — Ungoliant (falai) 18:49, 29 June 2015 (UTC)Reply
Regardless of whether or not it's the vocative and not an interjection, it should still be mentioned, as it seems to be in wide use in a non-pejorative, non-literal sense. JodianWarrior (talk) 21:25, 29 June 2015 (UTC)Reply
