/Sounds like "bah" (as in "bar") + "goh" (as in "go") + "NEH" (as in "net") + "tah" (as in "tar")/
A freeloader or slacker in Mexico who lets others carry all the weight while coasting along for the benefits. The word literally evokes a wagon: the vagoneta rides in it while everyone else pushes uphill.
“Don't be a freeloader, help out with the chores.”
“That slacker has gone months without contributing anything to the team.”
/Sounds like "bah" (as in "bar") + "goh" (as in "go") + "NEH" (as in "net") + "tah" (as in "tar")/
A chronic slacker who coasts on everyone else's effort and never pulls their own weight. In Argentina, vagoneta comes from "vagón," a train car that gets pulled rather than propelling itself. Someone who found the path of least resistance and made it a permanent lifestyle.
“Do not put that slacker on the team, he is not going to do a thing.”
“They have been coasting for years, collecting a paycheck without doing any real work.”

La movida
In Chile, the deal, the plan, or what's going on: also a shady scheme depending on context. Cachar la movida means getting what's happening or being in on the plan.
