Your word isn't here yet

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

/Sounds like "chah" (as in "chat") + "moo" (as in "moon") + "YEHN" (as in "yes") + "toh" (as in "toll")/

Meaning

A smooth talker and chronic liar who makes up stories to impress or wriggle out of trouble in Chile. Nobody believes a "chamullento" anymore, but they keep spinning tales with a straight face.

Examples

Don't buy anything from that salesman, he's full of it.

My coworker is such a bullshitter that nobody believes anything he says anymore.

Regional synonyms

A large, thick fruit that's cooked fried, roasted, in mole, or in slices across Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean. It's not a banana: plátano is for cooking, banana is for eating raw, and that difference is sacred.
