/Sounds like "OON" (as in "Uber") + "CHEEN" (as in "cheek") + "goh" (as in "go")/
A massive amount, a ton, a whole lot, one of the most versatile Mexican expressions for describing quantity. Whether it's people, money, or problems, 'un chingo' means there's way more than expected.
“There were a ton of people at the concert.”
“The mechanic charged me a fortune, I'm furious.”

Tener harta cara
Having a lot of nerve or shameless audacity, doing something bold without a hint of embarrassment. Used in Costa Rica, Guatemala, and Honduras, "harta cara" is a regional intensifier that hits even harder than the standard "cara dura."
