Join Hablaaa and add the expression no one else has documented.

/Sounds like "kahn" (as in "car") + "SOHN" (as in "solo")/

Meaning

An annoying, clingy person who never leaves you alone. Always has something to ask for or complain about, and nobody wants them around for long. In Colombia "canson" is that exhausting person who is always too much.

Examples

That kid is so annoying, he won't stop asking for things in the store.

Stop pestering me about the same thing, I already told you no.

Regional synonyms

A spontaneous, unannounced gathering at someone's house where a large crowd just shows up with no prior warning. In Argentina, a malón is both exciting and slightly anarchic: it just happens, people appear, and suddenly there is a party that goes until morning. The name comes from the surprise raids of indigenous Pampas peoples, same idea of sudden mass arrival.
