/Sounds like "eh" + "cheh" (as in "check" without the "ck")/
An exclamation from Colombia's Caribbean coast used to express surprise, amazement, or mild annoyance. It works like "whoa!" or "damn!" in English and is a signature filler word in costeño speech, thrown in to react to just about anything unexpected.
"¡Eche, qué calor tan horrible hace hoy! -> Damn, it's ridiculously hot today!"
"Eche, ¿Y eso cuándo pasó? -> Whoa, when did that happen?"
