Bo
/Sounds like "BOH" (as in "boat")/
Meaning
A Uruguayan expression to get someone's attention, the exact equivalent of the Argentine 'che' but with a Montevideo stamp. It's the registered trademark of Uruguayan speech that identifies you as Charrúa instantly.
Examples
“Bo, did you see what happened in the game? It was crazy.”
“Bo, come here, I gotta tell you something.”
Irse por los cerros de Úbeda
In Spain, to go completely off topic and wander into completely unrelated territory without ever coming back to the point. An art form some people master without even noticing.
