yeite

An ingenious way of solving a problem, usually improvising or using an unusual resource. Mostly applied to a source of income or goods.
This word comes from lunfardo, a lingo from Buenos Aires and other cities in Argentina and Uruguay.

"Mi yeite es vender empanadas en el tren." (My yeite is to sell food in the train)

"- Todos los días traen facturas a la oficina del piso de arriba, pero yo siempre voy y como igual.

- ¡Qué buen yeite!"
(- Croissants are bought everyday for the office upstairs, but I always go and eat anyway.

- That's a great yeite! )
