/Sounds like "chah" (as in "chat") + "BOH" (as in "boat") + "nah" (as in "nacho")/
A girl or woman, the feminine form of "chabón" in Buenos Aires lunfardo slang. Neutral and casual, with roots in Romani "chabo" (kid). No judgment attached, it is simply how you refer to a woman in an informal Argentine conversation.
“That girl asked me for the time and I completely froze.”
“He showed up with some girl nobody had ever seen before.”
