Does Esperanto have exclamations as a part of speech?

Ho jes! Certe!

A few.

Ho and ve (and the combination ho, ve!) are examples.

In case it passed anybody by, "ho jes" and "certe" are both exclamations. So is "diable," which if I remember right was the only thing in Zamenhofa Esperanto that remotely resembled an expletive. (We've since added others.)

As for "ba!", check the dictionary over there on the right. It defines "ba" as "bah, pooh, nuts." If it means something different in Spanish, that just makes it a false friend.

黄鸡蛋:But in PIV "ba!" is defined as "Interj., uzata por esprimi iom malŝatan senzorgecon". So...
Beat me to it. I'm guessing that there are places where Spanish is spoken where the meaning of "ba!" is much closer to the English version (the kind of "ba!" Ebenezer Scrooge would say) than the verbal shrug Hyperboreus says it works out to in Guatemala.
