a word the flutes want to use on their t-shirts because they think it means "to dance and party", but urbandictionary had the wrong definition so they made their own up and published them a bunch.
It basically means (boy) or (Hey boy). My grandparents were born in Italy and came through Ellis Island around 1913. My Father used to say it to me when I was young all the time. I now use it as a term of endearment towards my youngest son.
