Piña
/Sounds like "PEE" (as in "pea") + "nyah" (as in "Nyan")/
A hard punch thrown with a closed fist, the kind that can knock someone down. In Argentina and Spain, a piña is that solid hit that settles arguments the old-fashioned way.
“He threw a punch that knocked him to the ground.”
“They exchanged punches outside the bar.”
Piña
/Sounds like "PEE" (as in "pea") + "nyah" (as in "Nyan")/
A hard punch or fist blow to the face or body in Argentina, Uruguay, and Spain. A well-landed piña changes the direction of a fight fast and leaves an impression that outlasts the bruise.
“He threw a punch that put him flat on the ground.”
“They went at each other outside the bar and someone had to step in.”
Piña
/Sounds like "PEE" (as in "pea") + "nyah" (as in "Nyan")/
A sweet and sour tropical fruit, the base of the most refreshing juice and the piña colada. It's the queen of tropical fruits, perfect for desserts, aguas frescas, and eating on its own with chili and lime.
“An ice-cold pineapple agua, please.”
“He punched the bully right in the face.”

To move on from something in the past and keep going without holding a grudge. The emotional equivalent of closing a chapter: you acknowledge what happened and then deliberately leave it behind. Common across Argentina, Uruguay, and Chile.
