/Sounds like "CHAH" (as in "chat") + "peh" (as in "pet")/
A passionate, long, intense kiss in Argentina and Uruguay, the kind you never want to end. A chape is more than a regular kiss: there's tongue, there's desire, and there are usually uncomfortable witnesses.
“They had a massive chape at the party.”
“I went in for a chape and she was stunned.”
