Coña
/Sounds like "KOH" (as in "coat") + "nyah" (as in "Nyan")/
A joke, a tease, or lighthearted banter in Spain. Saying something "de coña" means you are kidding, not being serious. The coña itself can be sharp and funny, and it is the Spanish art of taking nothing too seriously while somehow still landing a point.
“I said it as a joke, don't take it seriously.”
“Is he being serious or is that whole thing he said in the meeting just a joke?”
