/Sounds like "wah" (as in "wand") + "cheh" (as in "check" without "ck") + "AHR"/
To watch, observe, or keep an eye on something or someone. It comes from the English word 'watch' adapted into a Spanish verb — pure Spanglish in action.
"Check out that car, it's beautiful."
"Can you keep an eye on my stuff while I go to the bathroom?"
