The first word I learned to say is guaita. My paternal grandmother would take me for a walk in the trolley, and as we wandered around she would point at things with her finger and say: “Guaita Laia, guaita!”. She spoke a particular Catalan, she was the daughter of Vallcarca. She said guaita instead of mira (look at). Guaitar means to watch carefully, analysing what is observed. Vigilant.
Jo guaito – I analyse what I vigil carefully.
