/Sounds like "ah" (as in "art") + "WEE" (as in "weed") + "chah" (as in "chat")/
The Aymara word for grandmother or a respected elderly woman in the community, used in Bolivia with affection and deep respect. Saying "mi awicha" carries warmth, tradition, and cultural roots that the Spanish "abuela" alone does not fully convey.
“My grandma taught me how to make api (a warm corn drink) when I was little.”
“The elderly lady at the market always throws in a little extra for free.”

Tener la cabeza dura
To be hardheaded, stubborn, slow to understand, or unable to learn from mistakes. Someone with a hard head repeats the same error a thousand times and still won't change.
