Someone who got their position through connections, nepotism or pull rather than merit. In Mexico an acomodado didn't earn their seat — someone handed it to them.
A hat, in Buenos Aires lunfardo slang — from the Italian 'funghi' (mushroom), for the rounded shape of a bowler hat. Classic Rioplatense street language with Italian roots.
In Argentina and Mexico, dating someone new immediately after ending a previous relationship — using a new person to bounce back emotionally. The rebound relationship, known and named the world over.
To completely ignore something or someone — to walk right past without stopping, paying attention, or engaging. The deliberate act of treating something as if it simply doesn't exist.
Without order, reason, or coherence — done haphazardly without any logical structure or purpose. Something done sin ton ni son is completely random and inexplicable.
