/Sounds like "kee" (as in "keep") + "ree" (as in "reed") + "KOH" (as in "coat") + "choh" (as in "chose")/
A word you shout at someone to curse them with bad luck. It was born in Argentine football culture and went viral when it was reportedly used as an actual tactical weapon during the 2021 Copa América. Yelling "kiricocho" at a rival is like casting a jinx on them right before a crucial play.
“Kiricocho! You're gonna miss the penalty.”
“I shouted kiricocho at the goalkeeper and he saved it, doesn't work on me.”

Faite
A neighborhood bully or tough guy who uses aggression and intimidation to assert dominance. In Ecuador and Peru, the faite is always looking for a fight and uses conflict as a way to show hierarchy. The attitude is more bark than bite most of the time, but the intention is very much to be feared.
