/Sounds like "gahn" (as in "garden") + "dah" (as in "dart") + "YEH" (as in "yes") + "roh" (as in "row")/
A freeloader who shows up whenever there is something good to benefit from but disappears the moment effort, money, or work is required. Used in Venezuela. The gandallero has a nose for free food, good parties, and easy opportunities, but conveniently goes missing when the bill arrives or it is time to chip in.
“That freeloader only ever shows up when there is food on the table.”
“Don't be a gandallero here, everyone pays their share equally.”

In Panama, Guatemala, and Honduras, a casual informal way to refer to a guy or just some dude. More neutral in tone than in other Spanish-speaking countries, where the same word can carry negative or racial connotations.
