Ñaña
/Sounds like "NYAH" (as in "Nyan") + "nyah" (as in "Nyan")/
In Paraguay, a term of deep affection for a close sister or female best friend, rooted in the Guarani language. You use it for someone in your innermost circle, the kind of bond where you can say anything and no explanation is needed.
“My ñaña is always there when I need her the most.”
“Hey ñaña, can I tell you something?”

Bajar el cirio
To get a serious dressing-down, called out harshly and directly in Mexico. When someone bajas el cirio on you, the person in front is furious and not holding back a single word. Usually comes from a boss, a parent, or anyone with authority over you.
