Loba
/Sounds like "LOH" (as in "loan") + "bah" (as in "bar")/
Literally "she-wolf," a confident, attractive woman with a seductive attitude who knows what she wants and goes after it. Made famous by Shakira's hit song "Loba" (She Wolf), the word became a compliment for women who own their sensuality and independence. Calling someone a loba is like saying she is fierce, bold, and impossible to ignore.
“That girl is a total she-wolf, everyone turns to look when she walks in.”
“They called me a loba and honestly I take it as a compliment.”

Chusmear
To snoop or stick your nose into other people's business. In Argentina and Uruguay, chusmear is practically a national pastime: it happens over WhatsApp group chats, through the window, or by deep-diving into someone's social media. The word carries no serious judgment; it is just what curious, social people do.
