/Sounds like "boh" (as in "boat") + "LEE" (as in "lead") + "grah" (as in "grant") + "foh" (as in "foam")/
A ballpoint pen, the standard word in Spain for the writing instrument that goes by a dozen names across the Spanish-speaking world. Mexico calls it pluma, Peru calls it lapicero, Argentina calls it birome. Same object, endlessly different names.
“Do you have a blue pen I can borrow for a moment?”
“My pen ran out of ink right before the exam.”

Desmadre
Total disorder, chaos, mayhem, or a situation that got completely out of hand in Mexico. Can be negative like an accident or positive like an incredible party, all depends on the tone.
