Your word isn't here yet

Join Hablaaa and add the expression no one else has documented.

/Sounds like "ah" (as in "art") + "gah" (as in "garden") + "CHOHN" (as in "chose")/

Meaning

A pushover who never stands up for themselves, just bows their head and takes the abuse without a word. In Mexico, the "agachón" lets people walk all over them.

Examples

Don't be a pushover, demand what you deserve, don't let them boss you around like that.

The boss takes advantage because he sees everyone just takes it.

Regional synonyms

To wake up very early, before dawn or at the crack of day. In Mexico and Central America, madrugar is treated as a virtue: the one who rises early gets ahead. It also works figuratively to mean getting a head start on something or beating someone to the punch.
