/Sounds like "mee" (as in "me") + "LOHN" (as in "loan") + "gah" (as in "garden")/
A rhythmic musical genre from the Rio de la Plata region, born in the 19th century and direct ancestor of the tango. Faster and more upbeat than tango, the milonga is the rhythmic root on which Buenos Aires musical culture was built.
“They played three milongas in a row before moving on to tango.”
“The milonga has a rhythm that gets your feet moving before you even notice.”
/Sounds like "mee" (as in "me") + "LOHN" (as in "loan") + "gah" (as in "garden")/
A social dance venue or evening where tango is danced in Argentina and Uruguay. The milonga is both a place and a musical style, the heartbeat of Rioplatense culture. Partners dance close, improvising every step in a silent dialogue that takes years to master. Serious milongas start late at night and can run until dawn.
“The regulars go to the milonga every single Saturday without fail.”
“The downtown milonga is the most traditional and respected one in all of Buenos Aires.”

Cucho
In Colombian student slang, the word for a teacher or professor. Calling a teacher "cucho" is casual and common among students, not disrespectful.
