Okay, okay. I see the word "basta" used extensively here at KiXtart.org and must ask the question, "What does it mean?"

Dictionary.com defines it as:
Quote:

basta

\Bas"ta\, interj. [It.] Enough; stop. --Shak.





The context of its use doesn't always seem to fit with this definition. Can anyone clarify for me?
