why dominicans call money "chele", "cuarto" and "clavo"? a little bit of language and a little bit of history in educational article in listin diario today:
https://www.listindiario.com/econom...icano-le-llama-cuarto-clavo-o-chele-al-dinero
i don't remember ever hearing "clavo" in reference to money but "cuarto" (cuaLto as most people would say it) and "chele" are very common. i've also heard "plata" which is kinda self explanatory.
miespso also brought up "hoja", "papeleta" and "tabla".
what dominican words/expressions for "money" do you know?
