To disrespect someone, walk all over them, or take advantage of them without regard for their dignity. In Chile, when someone se pasa a llevar, they've crossed a line — treating another person like they don't matter.
A charm that transcends physical distance, the ability to attract someone even without being present.
Completely out of their mind, absolutely off the wall, or impressively intense beyond the usual scale. Reloco amplifies loco to the maximum — not slightly eccentric, but thoroughly, irreversibly wild.
To beat someone up badly, or to bust your own ass working incredibly hard. In Chile, sacar la cresta spans from violence to extreme effort — the crest (rooster's comb) being the thing that gets knocked off when someone truly gets destroyed.
To have unresolved emotional issues, traumas, or psychological burdens that affect one's relationships and well-being. It's about carrying emotional baggage, having unprocessed feelings or experiences that weigh you down and impact your interactions with others.
