What is Torré?
1.
Is pronounced tor- (as in the "tor" in "toro") -eh (as in the "e" in "men"). As a noun, torré is synonymous with the words terrible and miserable. As a verb, torré denotes merciless punishment or verbal abuse. In both its grammatical forms, torré connotes total failure and explosive destructiveness, but, ironically, is dictated with a heightened sense of brio and excitement. Is frequently accompanied by a physical gesture: a tightly wrung right hand slamming into the open palm of a left hand for each time the word is said.
