/Sounds like "ahn" (as in "art") + "DAHR" (as in "dart") + "pee" (as in "pea") + "RWEH" + "tah" (as in "tar")/
To wander aimlessly, spin in unnecessary circles, or stall with evasive behavior before getting to the point. Used in Chile. Someone who "anda pirueta" is going around and around without making progress, either literally drifting through the day or figuratively dodging a direct answer or a simple task that could have been done an hour ago.
“Stop going around in circles and just tell me what you actually need.”
“He spent the whole day wandering around doing nothing and made absolutely zero progress.”

Jocote
A small tropical fruit native to Central America with a big pit, tart when green and sweet when ripe. From the Nahuatl word "xocotl" (sour fruit), jocote is eaten with salt and chile or just off the tree. For most Central Americans, it is pure childhood nostalgia.
