Mufa
Bad luck, bad vibes, or a person bringing misfortune in Uruguayan and Argentinian Spanish. "Ese tipo tiene mufa" means he brings bad luck, the party gets ruined if he comes. The mufa can be situational ("qué mufa este viaje") or personal ("sos una mufa"). Used with humor but with conviction: Rioplatenses half-believe in mufa, even when they deny it to your face.
