“That woman is a berraca, she raised her whole family on her own without any help.”
“You have to be really berraco to start a business in this country and keep it alive.”

Entrador
A naturally bold, charming person who walks into any social situation with ease and is not afraid to start conversations or make moves. In Chile and Argentina, entrador also carries a flirtatious edge: someone who confidently approaches people they are attracted to. The kind of person who knows everyone by the end of the party.
