A very common spontaneous exclamation expressing surprise, mild pain, or sudden realization. Tone ranges from playful to genuinely startled depending on context.

Uses the verb 'urgir' in a pattern like 'gustar', where the subject is the thing that is urgent. In everyday speech it signals genuine urgency rather than mere preference, often with a slightly comic or exasperated tone.

A shortened, informal greeting used instead of '¿cómo estás?'. Can also mean 'how was it?' when referring to an experience, depending on context.

Used as an intensifier or to add sincerity to a statement. Can also express genuine puzzlement or emphasis, similar to 'seriously' in English informal speech.
