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.

Regional synonyms
Bandera de España
Bandera de México
Requete

Someone who has been partying nonstop, often for multiple days in a row, with no signs of stopping. Full celebration mode with the hangover filed under "tomorrow's problem." Common in Mexico and Colombia for someone deep in a party marathon.
