PoS: proper noun
pronounciation: 'Här-REE`toess'
a Mexican softdrink (meaning a carbonated nonalchaholic beverage) which has made its way to the States. I my-self first saw it at a Bigg's grocery store in Cincinnati, Ohio (where I reside), in quaint glass bottles.

Personally, my favorite flavor of Jarritos is Tamarind\Tamarindo. No other soda like it (atleast that I’ve experience the taste to which); almost as tantalizing as the broad asortment the Jones Soda flavors (imho). Second favorite flavor of mine would be Tuti-fruit (carbonated punch Mexi-style).

1. used to form the past-tense of a verb, especially of acronym-based verbs or those ending with otherwise an ‘e’ or one of the vowels<a\e\i\o\u\y> (as ending in ‘-ed’ looks a bit stilted when following an ‘e’), in addition to irregular, non-standard, nonlinear, and ‘created’ verbs.
2. suffix used to form a past-participle (less necessary than is the 1st use).

short for \ shortened from \ shortened version of the prepositional phrase ‘on {TV}’ or ‘on {TV network-X}’. Preposistion used as a present-tense_particple-type adjective in sentences that answer or pose (dependent on whether the sentence is declarative or interrogative) the question as to ‘*When* {<a designated program> is on <television>}’.
This is an example of a shortened version of something which is repeatedly said over-and-over in English; another example is the ommition of 'that' or 'which' in the sense of “Why is it, that you always seem to be attracted the to food *I* like?”, which actually means “Why is it, that you always seem to be attracted the to food that\which *I* like?” Not exactly the same are these two, though similar enough to be compared, I feel.

Q: When is Family Guy on?
A: Family Guy is on FOX every Sunday at 9:00PM EST.
Person flipping through the satelite\cable\subscription tv channels, changing it at intervals of exactly two seconds: “Ugh, nothing good is on...”
Annoyed endurer: “There’s 999 channels to choose from!!--Pick one!!!”
Note: The above sentence breaks a rule as disregarded as split infinitives, ending a sentence with a preposition. It could be fixed to “There's 999 channels from which to choose!!--Pick one!!!”, though sounds awkward and stilted in such a form, even on a non-colloquial level.
