/Sounds like "KWEH" (as in "quest") + "rohs" (as in "row") + "DEH" (as in "debt") + "RAH" (as in "rapper") + "nah" (as in "nacho")/
US dollars, a humorous Mexican expression for green bills, used especially along the border and among Mexican-Americans. The name literally means 'frog skins,' a playful nod to the color of American cash.
“I'm spending nothing but dollars on this trip to the States.”
“Change these cueros de rana to pesos for me.”

Chumbo
A gun, pistol, or any firearm in Uruguayan street slang. Chumbo is Montevideo lunfardo at its most raw, no euphemisms, heard in neighborhoods where the word describes a daily reality rather than a hypothetical.
