/Sounds like "ah" (as in "art") + "CHAH" (as in "chat") + "rah" (as in "rapper")/
A Costa Rican exclamation for expressing gentle regret or sympathy when someone shares bad news or an unfortunate situation. "Achara mae" is the Tico equivalent of "what a shame" or "that really sucks," but delivered with the warm, easygoing empathy that defines Costa Rican culture.
“Oh no, you broke your new phone? That's rough.”
“So sorry to hear about your aunt, I really am.”

Morral
A simple cloth bag or rustic backpack carried over the shoulder, the no-frills, practical carry-all of rural Mexico and Central America. Whether it's carrying tools to the field or lunch to school, the morral is the original tote bag, built for function not fashion.
