Smile. You know more than you did five minutes ago. Ask a question: “Wait, which ontas are we talking about?” Watch their face light up or get confused. Either way, you win.
And if someone tells you it’s a made-up word? Laugh. All words are made up. The trick is knowing which game you’re playing—and “ontas” lets you play three at once. That’s not confusing. That’s magic.
Now go forth. Text a friend “ontas.” See where the adventure takes you. I dare you.
