Marra

In the pit villages of the Durham Coalfield, marrowing was a system of bed-sharing agreed by two friends who were on opposite shifts. Your bed sharer was known as your marrow, or "marra", and the term then became synonymous with "mate".

Marra

Friend or mate. Used in greetings and to show respect to an equal, especially a fellow West Cumbrian.

miarma

A slang from Maracaibo, Venezuela, "Miarma" or sometimes spelled "Mialma" literally means "my (mi) soul (alma)."

Though its origins seem to come from Seville, Spain, in Venezuela it's used in response to something that is weird, unusual or unexpected. It is usually combined with the word "mardita" to accentuate.
