/Sounds like "ehn" (as in "egg") + "BYE" (as in "bye") + "nah" (as in "nacho")/
A person who habitually stirs up conflict and introduces unnecessary drama wherever they go. Used in Colombia, the word comes from "meter vainas" (to cause trouble). The envaina is that person who walks into a perfectly harmonious group and leaves a trail of tension behind, often without even meaning to.
“That troublemaker brings drama to every group he joins.”
“Don't be a troublemaker; everyone here gets along just fine.”

Pulseada
An arm wrestling match. You plant your elbow on the table and try to force the other person's hand down until it touches the surface. In Argentina and Uruguay it is a classic informal competition at bars and family gatherings, and also used figuratively for any head-to-head showdown between two people.
