A Verita Tuya

List Members,

I was watching an old movie from Spain (again ...), and I heard a singer say in a flamenco song "... a verita tuya ...". By your side.

Why have never heard this word before? Is this usage normal? Regional? Romantic? Phased out already?

Thanks!

Dean/Silopanna

I think this is a thing related to Flamenco contexts. I don't know if it's used ever in daily speech, or if it's a regional thing.
I only remember the expression being used in a song I listened to as a child, but never in any other context.
