/Sounds like 'CHOO-yah'/
Something lone, without a pair or companion — the odd one out. In Ecuador, chulla is deeply embedded in Quito's identity: a 'chulla quiteño' is the classic humble man from Quito who dresses well despite having little, epitomizing local pride.
"Aquí hay un zapato chulla, ¿dónde estará el otro?"
"Era un chulla quiteño de los de antes, elegante y carismático. → There's a lone shoe here, where could the other one be?"
"He was an old-school Quito original, elegant and charismatic."

Dar pena
Sentir vergüenza, timidez o incomodidad al hacer algo que te expone. En México 'dar pena' es esa sensación que te frena de actuar por miedo al ridículo.
