Today's Dominican Word: Matatan – slang for a person who “knows it all”, “the man”, someone who everyone thinks has good amount of books and street knowledge, not necessarily one more than the other.
Dominican: Mendim se cree que es un Matatan, lo argumenta todo.
English: Mendim swear he is the “the man” and knows it all, he argues everyone’s point.
