“Chivo”

Translation:

Cool
(Direct translation: Billy goat)

Context:

The informant heard this word often from their dad. In Salvadoran, it means cool and awesome. The informant states they use it when someone does a cool skateboard trick. “Chevere” is a word branched off from it, meaning good, interesting, or enjoyable.

Analysis:
It is interesting how the direct translation is “billy goat”, which relates to the modern day slang “goated,” also used to describe a cool action.
