/Sounds like "chahn" (as in "chat") + "goo" (as in "good") + "EE" (as in "eagle")/
In Cuba, a handicap or head start given to the weaker player in a game or competition. Giving someone a changüí can be a generous gesture or a quiet show of superiority, depending on who is doing it and how.
“Te doy changüí y empiezo sin dos peones.”
“I'll give you a head start and play without two pawns.”
“No me des changüí, prefiero perder en igualdad de condiciones.”
“Don't go easy on me, I'd rather lose on a level playing field.”
