Proper spelling is cabeça (the ç is pronounced with an "s" sound). Funny that is one of the only Portuguese words that survived through two generations to my husband! The other is an expression: "mais fica" which loosely translated means "more for me." People said it to children when they turn their nose up at something. My f-I-l was the youngest and so was never proficient in Portuguese sadly.
