Your word isn't here yet

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

/Sounds like "koo" (as in "cool") + "chah" (as in "chat") + "reh" (as in "red") + "AHR" (as in "art")/

Meaning

To meddle in other people's business without being asked. In Colombia and Venezuela, the person who cucharea always knows everyone else's drama but is blissfully unaware of their own. Part snoop, part gossip.

Examples

Stay out of my relationship, that is my business and nobody else's.

She spends her time sticking her nose into the neighbors' lives, she knows everything about everyone.

Word family

Someone who is completely checked out, off in their own world, or acting in ways that make no sense to anyone around them. In Chile, a "longi" is spacey, disconnected, and impossible to keep focused on any conversation.
