Bandera de República Dominicana

/Sounds like "keh" (as in "kept" without "pt") + "loh" (as in "low") + "keh" (as in "kept" without "pt")/

A casual Dominican greeting meaning 'What's up?' or 'How are you?' — probably the first phrase you learn upon arriving in Santo Domingo. It's as Dominican as merengue and the flag.

Example

"Qué lo qué, my brother!"

"I got to the party and the first thing I heard was 'Qué lo qué!'."

Regional synonyms:

Agobiado

Bandera de España

Estresado, abrumado, con demasiadas responsabilidades encima que te superan. En España 'agobiado' es la respuesta estándar cuando todo se te junta a la vez.
