embalar / no embalo Explanation: Groovy --- Used in the fifties to denote music that swings or is funky. For a short while in the sixties, groovy was synonymous with cool. The word has been used little since the seventies. Hey, Jack, dig that "groovy" beat. Reference: http://www.allaboutjazz.com/speak.htm |
