what does sanmacorisano mean?
this word is in the brief and wondrous life of oscar wao, by junot diaz.
"Sanmacorisano" is either a person from "San Pedro de Macorís" or "San Francisco de Macorís", both provinces (political divisions) of the Dominican Republic. However, in the Dominican Republic the right terms people use are:
1. "Macorisano" >> Someone from "San Francisco de Macorís".
2. "Petromacorisano" >> Someone from "San Pedro de Macorís".
Based on the context of the book it's possible that the author (Junot Díaz) meant "petromacorisano".
