/Sounds like "gah" (as in "garden") + "ROO" (as in "rude") + "ah" (as in "art")/
A fine, persistent drizzle typical of Buenos Aires and the Río de la Plata region. Garúa never quite qualifies as real rain, but it hangs in the air all day and soaks you just the same. Also used in Peru and Ecuador for light, lingering rain.
“There was a drizzle all morning and he arrived at the office completely soaked.”
“This constant drizzle is more annoying than a proper downpour.”

Espichar
To die, in Buenos Aires lunfardo slang with a humorous tone. Usually applied to objects or said about people in a figurative sense, rarely about an actual death. 'Ya espichó' often means something finally stopped working.
