Asu
/Sounds like "AH" (as in "art") + "soo" (as in "soup")/
A Peruvian exclamation of surprise that comes out fast when something hits you. It's short, direct, and you hear it on every corner in Lima when something unexpected happens.
“Asu, that really happened to you?”
“Asu, everything's so expensive, nothing's affordable.”
