Canche
A Guatemalan adjective for describing a fair-haired, light-skinned, or blond person, equivalent to Mexican "güero" or Salvadoran "chele." "Esa canche" means that blond girl. It's neither pejorative nor praise: it's neutral description in daily use. Applied to locals with light features and to foreigners alike. A Chapín identity-marking word with no equivalent in other countries with the same usage.
