[quote ObsequiousNewt, Vector, /ˈajwʌ/]Sorry, I should be more clear. I'm looking for weak expletives or minced oaths, like "shoot" or "darn" or even "fiddlesticks", not strong ones.[/quote]

I would use [b]nanka[/b] in mild circumstances. Generally speaking, the vocative [b]ya[/b] would also be useful in mild situations.

[b]ya mita[/b]
Oh, dog!

[b]ya tam nakam[/b]
Oh, you (darn) women.

This article is decently written and demonstrates that Pthag is more right than others. I'll say this, to me, the distinguishment has always been ingredients and freshness...this is probably due to me living in the Eastern US for most of my life and the short time that I did live in the Southwest was spent in awe of how fresh and authentic the taquerias were...that's just me though.

So pad thai and chickpea curry would qualify as what then?

If heat is the determining factor I make gourmet Mexican food at my house.
