/Sounds like "koo" (as in "cool") + "RREH" + "lah" (as in "lava")/
A working-class person who grinds every day without complaint or fanfare. In Spain, "currela" (from the slang verb "currar," to work) is worn with a certain pride: you are not the boss, you are not management, you are the one who actually does the work and keeps things running.
“A true worker through and through, thirty years at the same company without missing a day.”
“Working people are always the ones who end up paying for every new tax reform.”

Bagayo
Argentine lunfardo slang for someone who is physically unattractive or unkempt-looking. Used as a put-down, though sometimes said with humor among close friends rather than with real cruelty.
