Automatically translated from Spanish
To shout or yell at someone very loudly. While there is a stereotype that people only shout this way in the rural countryside, bus fare collectors in the city are constantly yelling out routes to attract passengers (in the Dominican Republic, a 'guagua' is a bus, and 'cobradores' are the workers who shout the destinations).
Listen, do not vocee at me, I am right here!
