In Gata, #LoTípic is to have our own way of speaking. If there is something that characterizes us Valencians, it is our peculiar way of speaking and, above all, our expressions! and in Gata, of those, we have many.
Today we tell you some of them so that when you come to see us, you don’t miss anything they tell you.😜
IEP! or AU!
For starters, here we don’t say hello and goodbye like the rest of the world would. Here we abbreviate with an Iep, Com va? to say hello! or a simple Au to say Goodbye.
A LA MARXETA
If you ask someone how things are going and they answer this, it’s not that they’re going to a party, it’s that…That’s it, throwing!
AIXÓ ES AIXINA
Here it is not discussed. If any expression has made Gata famous, it is this! If you listen to a local speak in Valenciano… You will immediately understand why they are famous.😉
LA MARE QUE VA!
No mother goes anywhere. This expression is used for a situation of surprise or exclamation.
NYAS COCA! – NYAS POLL!
Another way of expressing surprise or disbelief.
XÉ QUE BÒ!
When something is great, to lick your fingers!🤤
MASSA PA LA CARABASSA
Another expression to say that it is very very good.
PENSAT I FET
We like to improvise. So last minute. Do we come up with a plan? Well, we do it right now. Time is not wasted here. And, of course, we are always ready for it!🥳
UNA CANÇONETA I MON ANEM, OE!
We cannot deny that we like a party. Any time is a good time to celebrate and of course, when the music stops… We always want more! It’s our way of saying that one more and we’re really leaving. (Or not!)😉
A FER LA MÀ
If someone sends you here… You better leave him/her alone, he or she is not wishing you anything good!😵
FA FRESCORETA
Here everything seems small and little but we are very diminutive. If they say “Fa Frescoreta”… We must be in the middle of the winter!
