/Sounds like "sahn" (as in "salsa") + "KOH" (as in "coat") + "choh" (as in "chose")/
A confused, disorganized mess of ideas, arguments, or elements thrown together with no coherence. When a meeting, plan, or explanation is a sancocho, nothing connects and no one can make sense of it. The word borrows from the name of the hearty stew: everything gets thrown in at once.
“The meeting was a total mess, nobody agreed on anything.”
“That argument is a jumble, it mixes things that have nothing to do with each other.”
