/Sounds like "chah" (as in "chat") + "PEE" (as in "pea") + "nah" (as in "nacho")/
A Guatemalan woman, said with pride and affection. It is the colloquial, endearing way to refer to women from Guatemala, especially when you want to highlight their Central American identity with good vibes. The masculine form is "chapín." Guatemalans wear this word as a badge of honor, and calling someone "chapina" is acknowledging their roots in a warm, familiar way.
“My girlfriend is a Guatemalan girl from Antigua.”
“Guatemalan girls make the best pupusas, I don't care what Salvadorans say.”

A built-in wardrobe for storing clothes and shoes in Mexico, the space that's never big enough. No matter how many times you organize it, it always ends up bursting with stuff you don't even wear.
