Bandera de Venezuela

/chi-MI-so/

A gossipy person in Venezuela who talks about everyone and can't keep a single secret. The 'chimiso' knows everything happening in the building, the office, and the neighborhood — and makes sure everyone else knows too. Information doesn't stay still near a chimiso.

Example

"Don't tell that gossip anything — he'll spread it all over the building."

"That chimiso knows more about my life than I do."
