/Sounds like "ehs" (as in "egg") + "TAHR" (as in "tar") + "chee" (as in "cheek") + "keh" (as in "kept") + "AHN" (as in "art") + "doh" (as in "door")/
To spoil or pamper someone with extra attention and special treatment, more than what is strictly needed. In Mexico and Guatemala, "chiquear" is loving someone through indulgence. It can be a warm everyday gesture of affection or, taken too far, the reason someone grows up unable to handle being told no.
“They have been spoiling that kid way too much and now he doesn't listen to anyone.”
“Can you spoil me a little? I'm in a bad mood today.”

Colgado
Scattered, always off in their own world. A colgado forgets commitments, misses plans, and shows up two hours late without a care. In Argentina and Uruguay it is often used affectionately for someone hopelessly absent-minded rather than as a serious insult.
