/Sounds like "kah" (as in "car") + "LEE" (as in "lead") + "yah" (as in "yard")/
A difficult situation, tight spot, or problem that's hard to get out of. In Costa Rica, being 'en una calilla' means you're stuck, no money on a Friday, forgot your passport at the airport, locked out of your own house. Minor catastrophes with major inconvenience.
“I'm stuck with no money on a Friday, nightmare.”
“What a mess, I left my passport at home.”
