To leave something adrift, as if it is nobody's problem. In Chile, leaving something "al lote" is the maximum level of not caring, you do not even look back. It is like saying "whatever happens, happens" and walking away.
“He left the dishes sitting there and went to sleep like nothing happened.”
“The project was left to rot, nobody wanted to take the bull by the horns.”
/Sounds like "AHL" (as in "art") + "LOH" (as in "loan") + "teh" (as in "ten")/
To completely ignore someone or something, as if they do not exist. In Chile, leaving someone "al lote" means practicing indifference at a level that becomes almost an art form. Think ghosting, but applied to anything, not just texting.
“I sent three messages and was left on read all afternoon.”
“He ignored the project and then complained about the grade.”
/Sounds like "AHL" (as in "art") + "LOH" (as in "loan") + "teh" (as in "ten")/
Without a care in the world, completely unbothered, treating something with total indifference in Chile. To leave something 'al lote' means to ignore it entirely as if it didn't exist, with a level of carelessness that's almost impressive. It's the Chilean way of saying someone just doesn't give a damn.
“I told him to study and he completely ignored me.”
“He left everything hanging and took off on a trip without even telling anyone.”
