/Sounds like "gwee-REE-lah"/
A Nicaraguan tortilla made from young corn (not the usual dried corn), with a slightly sweet flavor and denser texture than common tortillas. Eaten hot with dry cheese, cream, or cuajada, it's family party food, market breakfast, and guaranteed craving when a street vendor appears. The güirila is one of Nicaragua's culinary emblems.
"Vamos a desayunar güirilas con cuajada. → Let's have güirilas with cheese for breakfast."
"La güirila se come bien caliente. → The güirila is eaten hot."

Vaina
The ultimate Venezuelan wildcard word that can mean literally anything: an object, a situation, a problem, or something whose name you just can't remember. It's so flexible that entire conversations can revolve around it without anyone batting an eye.
