Your word isn't here yet

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

/Sounds like "MOH" (as in "more") + "chah" (as in "chat") + "teh" (as in "ten")/

Meaning

A direct call for someone to chip in, share, or cough up money for something. In Mexico, "móchate" is the no-nonsense way of saying "do your part," whether for splitting a bill, contributing to a group fund, or just not being the only one at the table who hasn't paid.

Examples

Móchate con unas pizzas, no seas codo con todos.

Chip in for some pizzas, don't be cheap with everyone.

Ya móchate, todos cooperamos menos tú.

Come on, contribute already, everyone else already did.

To chat or have a casual conversation in Mexico and Central America. This is the go-to Mexican word for talking with someone in a relaxed, informal way, whether you are catching up over coffee, gossiping, or just hanging out. While "hablar" is the standard Spanish word for talking, "platicar" carries a warmer, more laid-back vibe.
