/Sounds like "KWOH" (as in "quote") + "rah" (as in "rapper")/
Chicano Spanglish for a quarter (25-cent coin), from English. Essential for the laundromat, arcade machines, and parking meters. "¿Traes cuoras?" is the classic question.
“I need quarters for the dryer, do you have change?”
“I put three quarters in the meter and it still wasn't enough.”

Caña
A distilled sugarcane spirit, the local equivalent of aguardiente, widely consumed in Bolivia, Paraguay, and Peru. Drunk straight, mixed with water, or used as the base for traditional cocktails in the region. Rough around the edges and deeply tied to local drinking culture.
