/Sounds like "em-peh-RAR-seh". "Em" (as in "ember") + "peh" (as in "pet" without the "t") + "rar" (as in "rare" without the "e") + "seh" (as in "set" without the "t")/
To stubbornly insist on something without budging, refusing to back down under any circumstance. Used mainly in Spain, when you dig your heels in and absolutely nobody in the world can convince you otherwise. Think of it as being bullheaded about a decision.
"Se emperró en ir a la playa aunque llovía. -> He insisted on going to the beach even though it was raining."
"No te emperres con eso, hay mejores opciones. -> Don't be so stubborn about that, there are better options."
