Your word isn't here yet

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

/Sounds like "PEH" (as in "pet") + "gah" (as in "garden")/

Meaning

A job or work in Chile. 'Finding pega' means getting a job and 'being without pega' means being unemployed. It's the standard Chilean word for employment.

Examples

I found a new pega downtown.

I've been looking for pega for months and nothing good comes up.

The US dollar traded on Argentina's parallel or informal market, outside the official exchange rate. "Blue" comes from the color of the bill. The blue rate often differs dramatically from the official rate and is a constant topic of conversation in everyday Argentine life.
