Famously elastic in Spain. "Ahora voy", I am coming now, can mean anything from thirty seconds to whenever. "Ahora mismo" (right now) is the binding version.
Or "luego" (LWEH-goh), which you already know from hasta luego. Both are equally common.
Also means "morning", so "mañana por la mañana" is tomorrow morning, a phrase that delights every learner. Context always makes clear which mañana is meant.
