A word that evolved from some forgotten Spanish word, 'Gyamyos' (or its shortened version, 'gyam') can mean basically anything. It is the ultimate retort to any statement, and a good answer to any remark or inquiry. It can be used as a noun, a pronoun, an adjective, a verb, an adverb, a preposition, a conjunction, and an interjection. Though teachers may not acknowledge it as a real word, it will be printed in dictionaries worldwide soon enough. Its true origin may never be known, but it was brought back in 2009 by a 16-year-old and his friends with too much time on their hands. Teacher: Billy, what's that in your hand?
Billy: Miss, what are you gyamming about? Teacher: Is that a note?! Billy: I think you're gyammed, Miss. I don't have anything! Creepy Guy on Street: You there! Come over here! NOW! Kid: Gyamyos! *runs away* Guy 1: Yo, what time do you have? Guy 2: A quarter past gyam. Guy 1: What? Seriously, what time is it? Guy 2: Alright, fine, it's gyam o' clock. Guy 1: Dude, come on! I have to go soon! Guy 2: Alright, gyam, it's 3:30. Kid 1: Are you coming to the party tonight? Kid 2: I can't, my mom's gyamming... Person 1: Gyamyos. Person 2: Gyam. Person 3: Yeah, basically. |
