Definition
An informal or dialectal form possibly related to chance; or a variant influenced by Spanish chancho (pig).
Etymology
Possibly from chance with dialectal phonetic changes, or borrowed from Spanish chancho meaning pig; unclear exact origin in English usage.
Kelly Says
Chanco is linguistically mysterious—it could be a dialectal compression of 'chance' OR a borrowed Spanish word, showing how regional English absorbs both internal variations and external borrowings!
