I drove into Baja with a few friends decades ago. A girl that was with us kept saying "OCHO!" to people. She'd buy something, the shop person would give her change, and she'd smile real cute and confidently say,"OCHO!" After 3-4 times, and a corresponding number of confused looks in response, I asked her why she kept saying that. She thought it meant "Thank you!" We all laughed and got on with our trip.
