La Posta
A term used to refer to the truth, specifically the most complete and sincere version of it. It is frequently used as an interjection to ask for confirmation or to swear that one is telling the truth. (In Argentina, it carries the weight of being the definitive or most reliable information).
Person A: Did you see that multi-car pile-up on the news? There were like 40 dead! Person B: No way, Posta??! Person A: Posta! Why would I lie about this! Husband: Posta honey, I went to see my mom because she had a heart attack, but she is better now. Wife: Are you telling me la posta? Because if not, this ends right here. Husband: Come on babe, you think I would get home at 7am just for partying with my friends?
