Your word isn't here yet

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

/Sounds like the English word "postur" + "EH" (as in "egg") + "oh" (as in "oh")/

Meaning

Faking a lifestyle or personality to impress others on social media or in person in Chile. "Postureo" is pure facade: projecting a false image for likes or social status.

Examples

That account is pure posing, in real life they're nothing like that.

Drop the act and just be yourself.

Regional synonyms

Having the worst possible hangover: splitting headache, nausea, and an overwhelming sense of regret about the night before. In Mexico, "cruda" is the word for hangover, and crudísimo means the most brutal version of it, the kind that makes you swear you'll never drink again.
