An outdoor or semi-outdoor casual food spot — the place you go for afternoon snacks, grilled meats, or simple food in a relaxed, open-air setting. In Spain, merendero is where families go on weekends, away from restaurants.

To bolt, take off at full speed, leave in a huge rush. In Spain when you sales pitando you're gone before anyone can even say goodbye.

A mistake so embarrassing it causes intense second-hand cringe — the perfect combination of failure and cringe that burns into your memory and everyone else's. Often captured and shared widely on social media.

A know-it-all — someone who pretends to have expert knowledge on everything and constantly interrupts others to correct them. Insufferable in any conversation, especially in meetings.
