Your word isn't here yet

Join Hablaaa and add the expression no one else has documented.

/Sounds like "ahn" (as in "art") + "toh" (as in "toll") + "HAHR" (as in "hard") + "seh" (as in "set")/

Meaning

To suddenly and intensely crave something, usually food. Cravings in Spanish do not ask for permission: they just happen, often at the worst possible hour, and "antojarse" captures that spontaneous, irresistible pull perfectly.

Examples

I got a craving for pizza at two in the morning.

What are you craving for dinner tonight?

Regional synonyms

To string someone along with empty promises, half-truths, or vague reassurances that keep them pacified without ever resolving the actual problem. A classic Mexican bureaucratic tactic: you leave every conversation feeling like something was said, but nothing was actually done.
