Add a word/Sounds like "cheen" (as in "cheek") + "GAH" (as in "garden") + "dah" (as in "dart")/
Meaning
Mexico's most explosive and versatile core swear word, functioning as a curse and intensifier in dozens of expressions. "A la chingada" means go to hell or forget it, "de la chingada" means absolutely terrible, and it can stand alone as an expletive when something or someone completely crosses the line. Deeply Mexican, impossible to fully translate.
Examples
“Tell him to go to hell if he disrespects you.”
“That exam was absolutely brutal, I totally bombed it.”
