An indigenous Pacific Ocean group and culture from the Mariana Islands. The Mariana Islands are politically divided between Guam and The Northern Mariana Islands. The Chamorus have been depicted as being Filipinos but this has proven to be untrue culturally and genetically. The Chamorus are a distinct cultural and linguistic group seperate from other Pacific Island groups, e.g. Hawai'ians, and Asian groups, e.g. Filipinos. The next closest language related to Chamoru is a "distant cousin" language from the Toraja Cluster of Celebes, Indonesia.

Chamoru is also spelled Chamorro.
A: Are you Guamanian or Chamoru?
B: I'm both.
A: How's that?
B: Guamanians are Chamorus from the island of Guam and not from the Northern Mariana Islands. If I were from the Northern Mariana Islands then I would be a Chamoru, but not a Guamanian.

Chamorro 

Indigenous people to the lovely island of Guahan, or Guam for you outsiders. They're known for their awesome barbecue and unique finadene sauce. Although some think they're Filipino, THEY'RE NOT. Totally different ethnicity, totally different island. Chamorros are very hospitable, welcoming, and for some reason are very patriotic, despite the recent and ongoing conflict in regard to the upcoming Military build-up. They're definitely people you want on your side. They are very family oriented and over-protective for good reason. They are currently fighting for political identity, war reparations for WWII victims and veterans, and indigenous rights. They can be the most respectful, loving, and welcoming people but in extreme situations, the most feared.
Chamorros are very patriotic in that Guam has the highest enlistment rate in the US.

Chavoruco 

An amalgamation of the slang terms "Ruco" (Old/Senior) and "Chavo" (Lad/Kid).

Chavoruco is a colloquial term used in Mexico to describe a middle aged person who tries to act much younger than they really are.

Male Chavorucos can be seen trying to buy drinks for girls at the club and sporting either a man bun or a pompadour hair cut even though both have been out of style since 2013. They still get their clothes at Urban Outfitters because it makes them feel trendy and think Imagine Dragons is a cool band. They're also totally not like, 38 or anything lol why? Did someone say something?

Their female counterparts are often spotted in Vegas...drunk and wearing one of those tacky bridal shower trucker hats. They still fake tan and have a belly ring because they're stuck in 2001. They chase after boys who are way out of their league and then complain about always being the bridesmaid and never the bride. They love adding tons of cringey hashtags to their Instagram selfies and hide behind Snapchat filters.
"Dude, who are those four guys by the bar? I think it's Imagine Dragons"
"No, those are just some aging hipsters trying to hit on girls. Ew, total chavorucos."
