Lolailo
A very singular character from some Spanish regions such as Catalonia, Madrid but mostly from the South of Spain It is very easy to recognize them : they tend to have long curly hair, wear shawls, gold, and vintage clothes, play guitar, etc...
You can find them anywhere but especially at the fair, on the river,in the subway, in the park below home singing , on the beach…always playing “rumba” with the guitar.Their religion is called “Flamenco”. Their God and prophet is the most famous flameco singer, Camarón.

Expressions:
“Arsa, quillo!”: Ole!
“Qué arte!” : “Awesome!”
“Tirititraun!”: (common word used in their rumba songs. Try to pronounce it!
