Your word isn't here yet

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

/Sounds like "koh" (as in "coat") + "chee" (as in "cheek") + "NEH" (as in "net") + "roh" (as in "row")/

Meaning

A huge, disgusting mess. In Mexico, cochinero describes a place that is filthy, cluttered, or so disorganized it makes you cringe just looking at it. The word comes from "cochino" (pig, dirty), and it is exactly what your mom calls your room when you have not cleaned it in a week. It can refer to physical messes like a trashed kitchen after a party, or even a messy situation in general. If someone says your place is a cochinero, you should probably start cleaning immediately.

Examples

Your room is a pigsty, pick up your stuff.

They left a huge mess in the kitchen after the party.
