/Sounds like "yah" (as in "yard") + "HYE" (as in "hi") + "rah" (as in "rapper")/
A female name of Arabic origin that is extremely common in Panama and parts of Central America. Its high frequency in Panama made it a cultural reference for a typical Panamanian woman, sometimes used generically with that meaning.
“The Yajaira from the neighborhood makes the best tamales in the city.”
“Every Yajaira I've met is a really hard worker.”

A historical Chicano slang term for a gay man, used in Pachuco caló since the 1940s. Originally descriptive in the barrio context, it later took on negative connotations and is now considered offensive by many. It appears in classic Chicano literature but is no longer used as a neutral reference.
