/Sounds like "kahn" (as in "car") + "seh" (as in "set") + "LAHR" (as in "lava")/
To cancel someone, meaning to publicly reject and collectively withdraw support from a person because of something they said or did. This is the Spanish equivalent of cancel culture, a social media phenomenon where someone can lose massive public support overnight. Used across all Spanish-speaking countries, especially on Twitter, TikTok, and Instagram.
“He got canceled on Twitter for a comment from five years ago.”
“Cancel culture got out of hand.”

Ñapa
A little extra thrown in for free. From the Quechua word "yapa," meaning something added on top, ñapa is the bonus the vendor tosses in after you have already paid: an extra piece of fruit, an extra piece of candy, a little something to thank you for your business. A small gesture with a big cultural weight in Peru and other Andean countries.
