Amazing, awesome, top notch. "A todo dar" is Mexico's stamp of approval for anything that left you satisfied, from a party to street tacos. It's like saying something is "the best" or "fire," and it works for pretty much any situation where things went great.
Fear of missing out on something fun that others are doing — that modern social anxiety that makes you check Instagram every five minutes to see what everyone's up to without you. It hits hardest when you chose to stay home.
To talk trash about someone behind their back, criticize them harshly when they're not around. In Mexico, 'pelar' someone is the classic behind-the-back gossip that everyone does but nobody admits to.
To beat someone to something, snag it before they can react — a spot in line, a parking space, or even a person's affection. It's that frustrating moment when you lose something by a split second.
To have a perfect, fun, and memorable experience that deserves the highest score. When you 'la pasas de diez,' everything went so well you wouldn't change a thing and want to do it again immediately.
