vamos

Let's go, borrowed

Vamos is Spanish for "let's go" or "we go," borrowed into English as an exclamation urging action or departure.

It appears in casual speech, often with a sense of enthusiasm or impatience: Vamos, we're going to be late!

The word carries a slightly playful or energetic tone, sometimes used by English speakers who know little other Spanish.
