/Sounds like "kahr" (as in "car") + "GAHR" (as in "garden") + "EHL" (as in "egg") + "BAYN" (as in "bay") + "teh" (as in "ten")/
In Mexico, to pick up the tab or cover the cost of something. "El veinte" is slang for a bill or expense in general. Used both for splitting checks and for pointing out the person who always ends up paying more than everyone else.
“I will cover it this time, next round is on you.”
“How come I am always the one picking up the tab? Where did everyone disappear to?”

Zacate
Chicano Spanglish for the lawn or yard grass that needs mowing, taken from the Mexican Spanish word and applied to American suburban lawns. Mowing the zacate on weekends is a classic barrio ritual.
