A to Z Challenge: L is for Loco

L is for Loca or Loco.

Four letters that mean so much, again depending on tone and body language.

A basic definition of Loca is crazy (the feminine) Loco (masculine).

But it’s also:

mad

out of one’s mind

distraught

deranged

crazed

demented

crack-brained

loony

haywire

she’s gone around the bend
nutty

The word can also describe a scene: 
whacky

zany

daft
Or the word can mean a situation:

hectic

wild

bonkers

If you add the word Que in front of it, Que loco, the phrase becomes “That’s crazy,” as in “Unbelievable.”
Got it? 🙂
