Roroa
Roroa is a colloquial Kenyan word for ‘talking’, which comes from a mixed Swahili-English pidgin called Sheng.
Johnny Weissmuller’s portrayal of Tarzan, itself a distinctive character in his own right, did not do as much Roroa as Edgar Rice Burroughs’s original character of the same name.

Semma
Semma is a Tamil word often used by Tamilians to denote great, awesome, wonderful, etc. In other words, it is hands down an all-fit adjective for positivity and encouragement.
If you love the filter coffee, just say, “Semma Irukke”. It is one of the trending words in Tamil and can be considered as one of the best Tamil slang words.
