Your word isn't here yet

Join Hablaaa and add the expression no one else has documented.

/Sounds like "AH" (as in "art") + "GEH" (as in "get") + "boh" (as in "boat")/

Meaning

Absolutely yes, of course, definitely, the most emphatic affirmation in Mexican slang. 'A güevo' closes the discussion: you're going, you're doing it, it's happening. No conditions, no hesitation. The word is direct to the point of being blunt, and that's exactly the point.

Examples

Are you going to the party? Hell yes I am.

Of course I'll finish this today, I already set my mind to it.

Regional synonyms

That distinct foot stench that hits the whole room the moment someone takes their shoes off. In Colombia and Venezuela, pecueca is the go-to word for this particular offense, and calling it out is basically a public service. No sugar-coating: if someone has pecueca, everybody knows.
