/Sounds like "ah" (as in "art") + "moo" (as in "moon") + "RAH" (as in "rapper") + "doh" (as in "door")/
To be abandoned or stood up without warning. From Argentine lunfardo, "amurado" describes the feeling of being left stranded by someone who walked away without explanation or notice. The image comes from being chained to a wall (muro) and left there. It can be literal (left at a meeting point) or emotional (ghosted).
“She left me stranded at the station and took off with the car without a word.”
“He got abandoned right on his wedding day, nobody saw it coming.”
/Sounds like "ah" (as in "art") + "moo" (as in "moon") + "RAH" (as in "rapper") + "doh" (as in "door")/
Trapped, stuck, or abandoned somewhere with no way out. When you're 'amurado,' someone left you stranded in a situation with no solution, and you just wait.
“He left me stranded at the station and took off without a word.”
“I got stuck in the car with the keys locked inside.”

Dar a entender
To hint at something without saying it directly, leaving a message between the lines. It depends on the other person being perceptive enough to catch what was never actually said out loud.
