/Sounds like "POHN" (as in "port") + "teh" (as in "ten") + "TROO" (as in "true") + "chah" (as in "chat")/
Mexican phrase meaning stay alert and keep your guard up because something might go wrong. A friendly heads-up to not let your attention slip.
“Watch your stuff on the subway, there's a lot of theft there.”
“Stay sharp during the interview, they'll ask you about everything.”

Rufo
Chicano Spanglish for the roof of a house, borrowed from English "roof." When there's a leak or tiles need fixing, the "rufo" is what the neighborhood talks about.
