There is no exact translation of Ay Caramba. It comes from saying a more ruder word, Carajo. It is like saying holycrap instead of holyshit.



The correct way is Ay Caramba not Ah Caramba ;)
Example of Oldie; On " I LOVE LUCY" When Lucy would do some extremely crazy stunt, Ricky would yelp" Ay Caramba.".

There is no literal translation of Caramba; it started off as a euphemism for a much ruder word (Carajo) but is now so

mild (like "Gosh!") that the two words are not even associated with each other mow.

By the way, Spanish-speakers are more likely to say "隆Ay caramba!" than "隆Ah caramba!"; "Ah!" sounds very English!What is the literal Spanish translation of Ah! Caramba?
it's like if one said: oh sh*t, or oh f*ck, of course... it ain't a curse word... though that word ain't used that much in Mexico anymore, cursing words work better, LOL
There's not really a literal translation; it's just an expression of surprise or dismay. Some people even say it in the US.
"Ay! Caramba". Buena suerte

The *literal* translation is "Oh! Wow"
