Oh damn. I always heard elderly Chamorro men call each other "partner," so I thought it was a shortened version of that

And then the Filipinos and Chamorros intermingled it and now it has evolved to mean "friend" more even though it is used differently in separate spaces on Guam. Makes sense. But it still amazes me that Chamorros here aren't aware of the origins. It might be a little of both.
