Apagon
A power outage or blackout. It refers to the frequent loss of electricity, whether caused by an unpaid bill or the power company toggling the grid or rationing service. (CDE refers to the state-run electricity corporation in the Dominican Republic).
1, Damn, they cut my power again but it is no big deal, I will just give Jose 100 pesos to hook it back up for me. 2, Those bastards at the CDE took the power again, the third time today.
