It also has two translations.

1.) (Californian derivative) noun; One's "homeboy", or figurative brother. Ex. "Hey bra, wanna smoke this fattie with me?"

2.) (French derivative) noun; A funbag carriage device (circa 1400 BC, Minoan civilization). Ex. Woman - "That woman's bra makes her look slutty." Man - "That woman's bra makes her look gooooooood"
