Your word isn't here yet

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

/Sounds like "LOHR" (as in "loan") + "nah" (as in "nacho")/

Meaning

A dumb, naive person who gets fooled easily without realizing it in Peru. Being lorna means everyone takes you for a fool and you don't even notice because your naivety exceeds all reasonable expectations.

Examples

Don't be lorna, they're totally playing you.

He was such a lorna lending money to that scammer.

Word family

Literally a black vulture from the Venezuelan plains, but in everyday speech it means someone who only shows up when there's something to gain from someone else's bad luck. The human zamuro circles overhead waiting for things to fall apart so they can swoop in.
