Mami
/Sounds like "MAH" (as in "mark") + "mee" (as in "me")/
Meaning
An affectionate or flirtatious way to address an attractive woman, very common in the Caribbean and Mexico. It has nothing to do with motherhood, it is a compliment that ranges from sweet to intense depending on tone and context.
Examples
“Hey girl, how are you doing?”
“She is absolutely gorgeous, I cannot stop looking at her.”
Regional synonyms
Estar podrido en plata
To be filthy rich in Argentina and Uruguay, to have so much money you literally do not know what to do with it. The expression translates to "rotting in money," painting a vivid picture of someone drowning in wealth. Often used with a hint of resentment or admiration, especially when the rich person is also stingy.
