Join Hablaaa and add the expression no one else has documented.

/Sounds like "HOH" (as in "hope") + "poh" (as in "port")/

Meaning

Tail or butt, usually an animal's tail, but in Bolivia it's used humorously for a person's backside too. Light and playful, rarely offensive.

Examples

The dog wagged its tail when it saw the food.

Quit shaking your butt around and get to work.

Regional synonyms

Something free, super cheap, or that you got without any effort in Peru. When something comes out "piola," life smiled at you: you spent nothing or so little that it feels like a gift from the universe. It's that sweet feeling of getting a deal so good it barely feels real.
