/Sounds like "DEH" (as in "debt") + "chee" (as in "cheek") + "REE" (as in "reed") + "pah" (as in "park")/
To achieve something by pure luck or chance, without planning or fully deserving it. In Mexico, when something works out "de chiripa," it just happened to go right by fortune alone.
“I got it right by pure luck, I wasn't even aiming well.”
“We won the game by a fluke in the last minute.”
