/Sounds like "FREHS" (as in "fresh") + "koh" (as in "coat") + "KOH" (as in "coat") + "moh" (as in "more") + "OO" (as in "Uber") + "nah" (as in "nacho") + "leh" (as in "let") + "CHOO" (as in "choose") + "gah" (as in "garden")/

Meaning

Completely shameless and utterly unbothered after doing something that should have caused embarrassment or guilt. Used in Spain and the Dominican Republic. The image is a fresh, crisp lettuce leaf: cool, undisturbed, giving off zero signs of stress. When someone acts "fresco como una lechuga" after causing chaos, the contrast between what happened and their composure is the whole point.

Examples

After everything he did, he walked into that meeting acting like absolutely nothing had happened.

He shows up two hours late and acts perfectly calm and relaxed, with zero explanation for anyone.

Regional synonyms

A sexual encounter or activity that happens early in the morning in Mexico. The most playful and energetic way to start the day that leaves you in a better mood than any coffee or breakfast.
