Definition
Short informal word for chocolate.
Etymology
From Spanish 'chocolate', which came from Nahuatl (Aztec) 'xocolatl'. The shortened 'choco' emerged as casual modern slang, particularly in Australian and British English, in the 20th century.
Kelly Says
The journey of chocolate is one of the world's great vocabulary migrations—from Aztec temples where it was a sacred bitter drink, to 'choco' bars sold at convenience stores.
