/Sounds like "CHOH" (as in "chose") + "tah" (as in "tar")/
The cops, the police. In Mexico and Central America, "chota" is street slang for law enforcement, used with a sharp edge and built-in distrust. When someone says "ahí viene la chota," it is a fast warning to everyone nearby.
“Cops are coming, put that away.”
“The police showed up and the party was over just like that.”

Rajón
A coward who backs out when it's time to step up, who promises things but never follows through when the moment comes. In Mexico, being a rajón gives you the worst social reputation, nobody trusts you.
