mami
/ˈmami/ · A2 · noun · f
ma
👩👧 mami = mamá + -i, the same baby-talk shortening as English mommy
Spanish clips mamá and adds the affectionate -i ending, just as English turns mom into mommy. Stress moves to the first syllable: MA-mi. In Caribbean and Latin American slang it is also a flirty term for an attractive woman, like English momma.
