Ahorita no puedo ir
I can’t go right now

Ahorita mismo le traigo sus tamales
I’ll bring you your tamales right away

Apart from meaning right now, it can also mean a moment ago:

Ahorita salió
She went out a moment ago

Sólo ahorita lo supe
I only found out a moment ago

In parts of Central America, Mexico and Venezuela you will also come across the variant ahoritica.

2. something found, especially a stray animal, whose owner is not known.

Cadet Blanchet almost forgot his rancour and no one at the mill knew of Mother Zabelle's project to send the waif back to the foundling hospital.
-- George Sand, The Country Waif, 1930

It wasn't any one thing that made a waif. Isobel was sure of that. It wasn't being crippled, or being in disgrace, or even not being married. It was a shameful thing to be a waif, but it was also mysterious.
-- Maeve Brennan, The Rose Garden: Short Stories, 2000

Waif likely finds its roots in the Old Norse veif meaning "waving thing" or "flag."
