We took out the lizard / We took the lizard out.

ya sa camo el alagarto = Ya, sacamos el lagarto

You get an A in translating Dominican-speak...

This is a wonderful example of this (we used to have a thread on this) usage of local
language.

There are hundreds of examples on the streets...

Well done.

It's all about phonetics and not how words are properly spelled.

Take the dictionary out of your brain, listen to what you hear, then take the sounds and apply it to words you know. Bam! Translated.
