frine

An expression used by a person who changes his mind from the negative to the positive in mid-sentence. Usually said slowly with much emphasis on the first two letters, because the person is thinking as he speaks.

"Teenager: You want me to clean my room? Forget it.
Mom: No room cleaning, no car use.
Teenager (thinking as he speaks): Frine. I'll do it. "
