Used as an intensifier for 'very'.
Contexto cultural
In the capital, slang evolves rapidly. 'Аймаар' has remained a staple for decades, acting as a linguistic bridge between generations of city dwellers. The shift from literal fear to figurative intensity reflects the changing relationship Mongolians have with their environment—from fearing nature to mastering it. On Mongolian Facebook and Instagram, 'аймаар' is often used in comments to show support for friends' photos. Unlike some slang which is gender-specific, 'аймаар' is used equally by men and women across all social strata in casual settings.
Stretch the vowel
To sound more native, stretch the 'aa' in 'аймаар' when you are really impressed: 'Аймааааар гоё!'
