/ˈperas/ · B2 · noun · f
money
💶 perras = pe(sos)+ras: coins that 'rasp' into your pocket as dough
Spanish slang perras (also perras gordas, old 10-centimo coins) means money. Link it to the sound 'pear-ass' and the idea of coins: 'pear-ass' coins make your pocket heavy. Note: perra also means female dog, so context matters.
