Chanta
An unreliable person who talks big but never delivers, or someone who fakes being something they are not. In Argentina and Uruguay, calling someone "chanta" is one of the harshest insults because it attacks their credibility and seriousness as a person. A chanta politician promises everything and does nothing. A chanta friend says they will show up and never does. It is all about the gap between what someone says and what they actually do.
