/Sounds like "chahn" (as in "chat") + "CHOO" (as in "choose") + "yoh" (as in "yoke")/
A shady deal or scheme to get something dishonestly, used across Spain and Latin America to describe corrupt arrangements of all kinds: rigged contracts, tax evasion setups, or any under-the-table maneuver that smells fishy.
“That contract is full of funny business, something is very off.”
“They set up a whole scheme to avoid paying taxes and ended up getting caught.”

Bien pueda
A very warm Colombian expression meaning "go ahead" or "please, feel free." Reflects the hospitality and courtesy that Colombian culture is known for. You will hear it constantly when someone is granting permission or inviting you to do something, especially in Medellin and the coffee-growing region.
