/Sounds like "KAHN" (as in "car") + "gree" (as in "greet")/
An important, powerful person with major style and presence in Puerto Rico. The cangri is the one who walks in and everyone turns to look, whether for their drip, their money, or their street rep.
“That cangri pulled up in an armored car with three bodyguards.”
“He thinks he's a cangri but can't even afford gas.”

Pringarse
To get mixed up in something shady or morally compromising, ending up tainted by association. In Spain, once you are "pringado" there is no pretending you were not involved. The word literally means getting covered in grease or fat, and socially it means you are implicated whether you meant to be or not.
