/Sounds like "GAHM" (as in "garden") + "bah" (as in "bar")/
A one-hundred-peso bill in Argentina. The word comes from Italian lunfardo slang (gamba means "leg" in Italian) and migrated into Buenos Aires street talk as the basic unit for everyday cash conversations. Essential vocabulary for anyone getting around the city with cash.
“Give me a hundred pesos for the bus.”
“Do you have a hundred? I am completely out of cash and need the fare.”

Tener ángel
To have a special charm or grace that makes everyone want to be around you. The kind of natural charisma that can't be learned or bought, people just gravitate toward it without knowing why.
