Your word isn't here yet

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

/Sounds like "koh" (as in "coat") + "roh" (as in "row") + "TEE" (as in "tea") + "kohs" (as in "coat")/

Meaning

In Venezuela, small personal belongings and random little objects you accumulate over time without realizing it. Those things you do not know where to put but cannot throw out because they might be useful someday.

Examples

Pick up your stuff from the bathroom, it is all over the place.

The drawer full of random little things is the most chaotic corner of any Venezuelan home.

Word family

A splash of alcohol added to a drink to give it some kick in Mexico. It can also mean a bug bite or sting, so context tells you whether it's happy hour or a mosquito attack.
