Join Hablaaa and add the expression no one else has documented.

/Sounds like "CHOHR" (as in "chose") + "chah" (as in "chat")/

Meaning

In Central America, a casual, agenda-free hangout where friends get together to talk, laugh, and kill time. A chorcha has no fixed schedule and no pretensions: just people who trust each other, sitting around with good humor and nowhere they need to be.

Examples

Come to the hangout on Saturday, we're having carnitas.

Every time those guys get together it ends up with everyone laughing their heads off.
