anoltao
Used in the Dominican Republic to describe a baby who is lethargic, dazed, or showing signs of illness like the flu or stomach distress. It is commonly used by humble families when a child seems out of it or has an unclear ailment, often attributed to milk not digesting properly (a folk term for general infant malaise or digestive distress).
The baby is acting strange, his stomach is bad because of the milk, he is anoltao. The baby looks like he has the flu because he is anoltao.
