/Sounds like "mahn" (as in "mark") + "dah" (as in "dart") + "REE" (as in "reed") + "nah" (as in "nacho")/
In Venezuela, a show-off who brags constantly without anything real to back it up. A mandarina talks big about trips never taken, drops names of people barely known, and puts on a performance of success that falls apart under the slightest scrutiny. The word is mocking.
“Esa mandarina habla de viajes que nunca ha hecho. (That show-off talks about trips she has never actually taken.)”
“No seas mandarina, baja al nivel de todos. (Don't be such a braggart, come back down to earth.)”

To act foolishly or make a clumsy, ridiculous spectacle of yourself. In Guatemala, whoever 'kekequea' always puts their foot in it at the worst possible moment.
