/Sounds like "kah" (as in "car") + "EHR" (as in "egg") + "DEH" (as in "debt") + "mah" (as in "mark") + "DOO" (as in "due") + "roh" (as in "row")/
Something so obvious or inevitable that it was only a matter of time. In the Caribbean, the expression uses the image of ripe fruit falling on its own: no one pushed it, gravity did the work. Used in the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, and Cuba when a failure, breakup, or outcome was completely predictable.
“Que cerrara el negocio era caer de maduro, llevaba meses sin clientes.”
“The business closing was inevitable, they had gone months without customers.”
“Se separaron al final: estaba caer de maduro.”
“They ended up breaking up, anyone could have seen it coming from miles away.”
