Monthly rent for living in a house or apartment that isn't yours in Mexico. It's the payment that eats the biggest chunk of your salary and makes you dream of owning your own place.

How much is the rent for that apartment?

Arriendo

A tricky, scheming person who uses deception and hidden moves to get an advantage. In Ecuador, Colombia, and Peru, a mañoso never plays it straight: there is always something extra on the bill you did not order, or a clause in the deal you did not notice. The opposite of someone you can trust at face value.
