/Sounds like "boo" (as in "boot") + "chee" (as in "cheek") + "PLOO" (as in "plume") + "mah" (as in "mark")/
In the Dominican Republic, someone who promises a lot and delivers nothing, all talk and no action. A "buchipluma" talks big but vanishes when it's time to actually follow through.
“That guy is all talk, he promised to help and never showed up.”
“Don't be all words, follow through on what you said.”

Regalar
In Colombia, 'regalar' isn't just giving a gift, it's also how you ask for something at a store or restaurant. 'Me regalas un café' doesn't mean 'give me a free coffee', it means 'I'd like a coffee, please.'
