What does "robita" mean?

votes

I've heard the term "robita" or "rovita" a couple times but I can't figure out what it means. I can't find it in a dictionary, and when I search for it on the internet I come up with nothing. In real life I've heard a friend use this word when calling his wife (Hey, Robita, blah blah blah). I also heard it on an episode of Teen Wolf (4th season, 1st episode I think) - the character was torturing someone for information and she said something along the lines of "Just tell me, Robita.". Does anyone know what it means?

I've just been watching a few minutes of that episode, and she says "lobito" (little wolf).

Me??? :)) - Cordobesa, Jan 1, 2015
Thanks :) That makes a lot more sense, haha. I'll have to ask my friend if he's saying the same word or not. - PR-Firedrake, Jan 1, 2015
I got the feeling that it's one of those words where the "ita" is added and I looked up "roba". I guess it's a verb meaning "steal" (for the most part). - PR-Firedrake, Jan 1, 2015
You're welcome. Yes, maybe it's a diminutive, but it doesn't make sense. Do you know her name? - Cordobesa, Jan 1, 2015
Wow, I really lost track of this. Yikes! Her name is Maria (if this is still relevant...) - PR-Firedrake, Apr 3, 2015
Entonces, no es un diminutivo de su nombre. :) - Cordobesa, Apr 3, 2015
