/Sounds like "doh" (as in "door") + "MEEN" (as in "me") + "goh" (as in "go") + "SYEH" + "teh" (as in "ten")/

Meaning

An unplanned pregnancy. The expression "salir con su domingo siete" comes from a Mexican folk story about someone who makes a mess of things at the worst possible moment. Today it is the colloquial way to announce or warn about an unexpected pregnancy.

Examples

My cousin ended up pregnant and she is only eighteen.

Don't go getting yourself in that situation, you know how things are.

Regional synonyms

To haggle or bargain over the price of something until the seller comes down. In Latin American markets, regateando is almost a social ritual and a practical skill: anyone who doesn't do it is leaving money on the table and missing half the experience. Refusing to bargain marks you immediately as a tourist.
