/Sounds like "CHOHM" (as in "chose") + "pah" (as in "park")/
A sweater or knit pullover for keeping warm in cold weather. In the Andes (Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia) the word comes from the English "jumper" and covers any warm garment of that shape, regardless of material or style. If it keeps the mountain cold out, it is a chompa.
“Grab your sweater before you go out, up in the highlands it gets cold at night even after a sunny day.”
“My grandmother knitted me a wool chompa that weighs half a kilo but warms you like nothing else.”

Estar de trampa
To be cheating on your partner, sneaking around with someone else behind their back. In Argentina this is the blunt, no-sugarcoating way to say someone is being unfaithful, hooking up on the side without getting caught.
