A Guatemalan word for work, job, or gig. "Ando en el choyo" means I'm at work, "conseguí un choyo nuevo" means I got a new job.

Flaite
A vulgar, trashy, or street smart person with bad manners in Chile. It's a derogatory term describing a specific social stereotype, similar to "chav" in British English or "ratchet" in American slang. Being called a flaite in Chile is definitely not a compliment, it implies loud, aggressive, and classless behavior.
