Maybe it’s the frequency in how often it’s used? In Arizona someone might say ’or what’ once a week if that. In New Mexico many people ask the question several times a day. ‘Or what’ can follow almost any question. Are you going to make spaghetti for dinner or what? Do you know if the mail came yet or what? Do we need more dog food or what? Did you hear those sirens in the middle of the night or what? Basically every question is followed up by this secondary question. It’s not done all the time, but a large number of people do it a good portion of the time. It’s rarely done to follow a question that starts with ‘what’ with an additional ‘what’. One wouldn’t ask the following: what is this in my burrito or what. It’s also rare to end a question that begins with ‘where’ with an ‘or what’. Example - ‘Where is the remote or what’ doesn’t work. ‘How are you going to change the channel or what’ does work though. Meaning maybe you want to change the channel or maybe you might have something else in mind besides changing the channel. ‘Or what’ basically asks the question ‘or are you thinking of doing something different than what I have asked’ or ‘does my question not apply due to circumstances I’m unaware of’.

Basically the word "basically" is so overused around Abq. To be -basically- meaningless. I went to UNM in the 1960's and two of my professors started over 50% of their sentences with "basically.". One was Hispanic and one was not, so forget any connection to culture or language. It seems more to be a local, social stutter while the mind catches up to what is upon itself. A kindred invention is the use of "irregardless" for regardless. Along and across the railroad industry employees stick the "ear"-full syllable onto an otherwise useful word.

I'm from Pennsylvania but I drove tractor trailer coast to coast for decades. Many of my trips through Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona made me want to live my final years out there. I hate Pennsylvania climate and developed health problems so I'm thinking Fort Sumner area. Love the wild West history. One thing that I noticed was how people answer their own question. Example, It's so hard to find a safe place to park for the night and I found a little gas station with a dirt lot. I parked in the rear lot and walked in for roller dogs and coffee. I was hoping that the guy would let me stay there all night. I went to pay and he said you staying all night no? I said yes I was hoping that I could. That's cool! I brought that slang home and I drive my wife nuts asking are you going to bingo no?

I'm thinking about relocating here (within the coming months). I have a lot of work to do. Getting entirely rid of Chicago (goat sounding) accent is one of my priorities. I learned that how you talk, depends of your environment. You know...who you are around, hang out with, etc. I also learned that a move somewhere else, is the best way to lose an accent. I know fellow Chicagoans that moved south. They sound so much different. I hate it here and I cannot wait to put it all behind me.

Please please please do your research And research more I’m in Las Cruces and moving here…. I couldn’t be talked out of it, it’s my fault. But it was the worst decision I ever made Please just get an RV and spend a year here and see if it’s for you I live in Las Cruces. Impossible to get a dependable job. So many homeless junkies and law enforcement who only care about traffic violations I want to go back to the Midwest. Even with the winters. Good luck in whatever you decide to do

@@MetAxa369 I can't stand Chicago anymore (or the metro area, where I'm at). I hear this all time, "the city's never been cleaner, nicer, with so much to do, etc." I haven't been downtown (or to the North Side) in 15-20 years. It's cheaper than NYC, LA, Boston, etc. It sure as hell isn't worth it. There's only so much you can take here. I do not plan to bring my baggage with me. I heard from a family member (who lives here), that what you said is true. She lives in a nicer area of town. I'll keep what you told me in mind. AZ, NV, UT, or TX would be alternates.

“Or what” is when we’re confident that we’re putting a good offer on the table. “You tryna go grab some food or what?” “Or no” is for when we’re not so sure they’re gonna be down. “Do you think you can you give me a ride or no?”

Can someone help me out? I'm from Albuquerque and I do remember in grade school kids would say "umbers" or pronounced ""ommmmberrrrssssss," when someone is doing something they shouldn't or might get them in trouble, BUT in my mind it is variation on "omm" like "ommm you're going to get in trouble for getting into the cookie jar" Where does "omm" or "um" come from? I don't think is it derived from Spanish but maybe it has some Native American roots. Has anyone else here heard of "ommm you're going to get in trouble" or "ommm" being used like that?

just to be clear not to give the impression that this is not how the majority of people in NM talk. My Family dates back to the original spanish/portuguese settlers and no one talks like this. I believe this came to NM from CA. chicano culture in the 50s,-70s. It is very unlikely you will encounter white, native american, asian, or black people talking like this.
