Sho
/Sounds like the English word "sho" (same pronunciation)/
A Guatemalan word for "quiet," "shh," or "pipe down." It is the Chapín version of the universal shh sound turned into an actual word you can say out loud. "¡Sho vos!" means be quiet already, and it works among friends, siblings, or anyone who needs to lower their voice immediately.
“Quiet, man, the movie is about to start.”
“Hush, the kids are sleeping and you're going to wake them up.”

Entrar al trapo
To take the bait and react exactly as the provocateur intended, falling right into their trap. The expression comes from bullfighting, where the bull charges the cape without being able to stop itself. In Argentina, Uruguay, and Chile, if you "entras al trapo," you let someone push your buttons.
