/Sounds like "PAHN" (as in "park") + "sah" (as in "salsa")/
The belly or stomach, especially when it starts sticking out more than expected. The body part that grows most stubbornly over the years and resists every diet with quiet determination. Used affectionately or with a laugh across much of Latin America.
“Se me está haciendo panza de tanto comer fuera.”
“I'm starting to get a belly from eating out so much.”
“Tiene una panza enorme pero come como si nada le afectara.”
“He has a huge gut but eats like nothing in the world bothers him.”
/Sounds like "PAHN" (as in "park") + "sah" (as in "salsa")/
A belly or gut, whether from eating too much, drinking too many beers, or just natural weight gain. In Mexico, the infamous 'panza chelera' (beer belly) is a national badge of Sunday football and cerveza.
“My beer panza has grown from drinking every weekend.”
“I need to lose the panza before vacation.”

Pringarse
To get mixed up in something shady or morally compromising, ending up tainted by association. In Spain, once you are "pringado" there is no pretending you were not involved. The word literally means getting covered in grease or fat, and socially it means you are implicated whether you meant to be or not.
