| No one laughed at the chechaquo after that, for he was sure a meat-eater, and well on the way to become a sourdough. |
| The tent rocked drunkenly, and in the frosty vapour he found himself face to face with a startled young woman who had called him chechaquo at Dyea. |
| But I was still a chechaquo, a tenderfoot in the ways of the North, and I knew nothing of the treachery of sudden blizzards. |
| He was a newcomer in the land, a chechaquo, and this was his first winter. |
| The narrator makes us see that the lonely, misguided chechaquo lacks imagination, empathy, and sympathy for anyone except himself. |
