Your word isn't here yet

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

/Sounds like "reh" (as in "red") + "KOHN" (as in "coat") + "trah" (as in "tract")/

Meaning

The super-superlative of "re" in Argentina, Peru, and Uruguay. When "re" alone is not enough to express how extreme something is, you level up to "recontra." The verbal equivalent of adding three exclamation points.

Examples

That restaurant is insanely good, you have to go.

I did incredibly well on the exam, way better than I expected.

Requete

A naturally bold, charming person who walks into any social situation with ease and is not afraid to start conversations or make moves. In Chile and Argentina, entrador also carries a flirtatious edge: someone who confidently approaches people they are attracted to. The kind of person who knows everyone by the end of the party.
