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

/Sounds like "POHH" (as in "port")/

Meaning

The written variant of 'po,' Chile's signature filler word added to the end of sentences for emphasis. It makes everything sound unmistakably Chilean and adds that distinctive Chilean flavor.

Examples

Yeah, obviously!

No way, dude, seriously.

Regional synonyms
