Your word isn't here yet

Join Hablaaa and add the expression no one else has documented.

/Sounds like "FEER" (as in "feet") + "meh" (as in "met")/

Meaning

Something that is really good, authentic, or high quality. In Chicano slang, this is one of the most positive words you can use, like saying something is legit and worthy of respect. It can also be used to confirm something with conviction, similar to saying "for sure" or "solid." Deeply rooted in Chicano barrio culture across the US and northern Mexico.

Examples

That ride is really clean, bro.

Yeah, for sure, see you at eight.

Regional synonyms

Randomly, without thinking it through, just going with whatever comes first. Doing something "al tuntún" means acting with no plan and trusting blind luck to sort it out. A risky approach, and people usually tell you not to do it this way.
