February 6, 2009

Today's Dominican Word: Anjá – an expression that indicates many things such as: Yes, agreeing to something, or “Oh really” if someone was to tell you surprising news.

Dominican:

Jose: Loco tu sabia que raul esta preso?
Manuel: Anjá, me dijieron esta manana, que siga peliando en baras.

Jose: Loco tu quieres comer taco bell?
Manuel: Anjá

Jose: Loco, la tipa de maria esta enbarasada
Manuel: Annnnnjáááá, no sabia

English:

Jose: Yo, did you know raul spent the night in jail?
Manuel: Anjá (Yes), I was told this morning. That’s what happens when you fight in bars.

Jose: Yo, do you want to go eat at Taco Bell?
Manuel: Anjá (Yes)

Jose: Yo, Maria is pregnant
Manuel: Annnnnjáááá, oh really, I didn’t know!
