/Sounds like "HOH" (as in "hope") + "choh" (as in "chose")/
The Bolivian word for hot dog, a phonetic and affectionate adaptation of the English "hot dog" reduced to "jocho." In Cochabamba, jochos are practically a street-food religion: served from night stalls with fries, melted cheese, onion, and yellow sauce, ideally after 10 pm.
“Let's go eat hot dogs on Heroínas street, those are the best in Cocha.”
“One hot dog with everything, please, but no onion, it doesn't sit well with me.”

Cambucho
A tiny, dark space used as makeshift housing. In Colombia a cambucho is that minuscule place someone calls home even though barely one person fits and no natural light comes in.
