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

/Sounds like "NEE" (as in "knee") + "koh" (as in "coat")/

Meaning

In Paraguay, a Guaraní particle used as an emphatic filler in Paraguayan Spanish to reinforce a statement. It works like "obviously" or "I'm telling you" to add extra weight to what you're saying.

Examples

I niko told you this was going to happen.

That niko is exactly what I always say, nobody ever listens to me.

Regional synonyms

To draw unnecessary attention or do something that gives away a situation that should've stayed hidden. In Mexico it means acting suspicious or blowing your cover when you should be playing it cool.
