/Sounds like "pohm" (as in "port") + "BEH" (as in "bed") + "roh" (as in "row")/
A mythological creature from Paraguayan folklore that lives in the forest and watches over nature. The Pombero moves invisibly, whistles eerily at night, and gets blamed when things go wrong in the wild. Parents traditionally warn children about him to keep them from wandering alone into the monte (forest). Rooted in Guarani tradition.
“My grandmother said if you whistled at night the Pombero would show up.”
“Don't go into the forest alone at night, the Pombero is out there.”

Tehuacanazo
A sudden, hard blow or unexpected consequence that hits you by surprise and stings. In Mexico, a "tehuacanazo" is anything that lands without warning: a financial shock, a bad piece of news, or an actual smack. Named after Tehuacan sparkling water, which also hits hard and fast.
