/Sounds like "ehn" (as in "egg") + "chahn" (as in "chat") + "KLAHR" (as in "clap") + "seh" (as in "set")/
In Colombia, to slip on your sandals or flip-flops the moment you get home, a small ritual that signals the formal part of the day is officially over and full relaxation mode has begun. It marks the clear boundary between public life and your own private space.
“I got home from work, put on my sandals, and I am not going back out tonight.”
“With this cold I switched to slippers at six and did not move from the couch all evening.”

Mosca
To be alert, sharp, and on guard. When someone says "ponte mosca" or "ándate mosca," they are warning you to pay close attention because something sketchy might be going on. The fly metaphor works because flies are notoriously hard to catch and always watching their surroundings. Used across much of Latin America and Spain.
