You ever had somebody ask you for a “moño” and then you had to ask, “what the hell is that” because you never heard of that word before?

A “moño” is another word for a hair tie, hair elastic, etcetera. When somebody asks you for one, they’re likely asking for one of your scrunchies or hair ties.

Unrelated to the Spaniard translation of “moño” because, trust, no one is asking you for a hamburger bun.

(Personal Note: My Puerto Rican family has called hair ties “moños” their entire life, including myself. Nobody seems to know where the word came from, but it’s probably a Latino and/or a Caribbean thing.)
“Hey, Emma… can I have a moño?”

“What the hell is a moño?”

“Just… your scrunchie. Give me your scrunchie.”

Mononucleosis is technically called infectious mononucleosis or glandular fever, but is generally referred to as "mono" for short. It occurs primarily between the ages of 10 and 35 years old. When younger children are infected, it causes little or no illness. Such exposure does, however, create an immunity to the disease. Nearly 90% of Americans have antibodies for mononucleosis by age 40. Mono has an incubation period of 30 to 40 days and the symptoms usually last 7 to 14 days but can last for several weeks. The virus can stay alive within the body for several months. The name mononucleosis comes from the fact that the disease distorts the white blood cells, causing them to only have one nucleus. Only a blood test called the mononucleosis spot test can determine if someone has the disease.


SYMPTOMS OF MONONUCLEOSIS



The following symptoms can be present with mono, but most likely not all will be. Sore throat, usually red Enlarged lymph nodes in all parts of the body Fever Nausea Loss of appetite Extreme fatigue Enlarged spleen (2/3 of mono patients) Ulceration of the pharynx (sometimes) Swelling of the upper eyelid Trouble breathing Rapid heart beat Red rash on the body (about 15% of mono patients) Oversensitivity to light
mono is usally causerd by kissing.

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
