Chukka for Dummies

Hey there! So, "chukka" is a word that has a few different meanings depending on the context it's used in. One of the meanings of "chukka" is actually related to the game of polo. In polo, a "chukka" is a period of play, kind of like a quarter in basketball or a half in soccer. So, when someone says "let's play one more chukka," they're talking about playing another period of the game.

You might hear someone say "I love those chukka boots you're wearing!" when they're talking about this type of footwear.
