/Sounds like "kahn" (as in "car") + "seh" (as in "set") + "LAHR" (as in "lava")/
To cancel someone, meaning to publicly reject and collectively withdraw support from a person because of something they said or did. This is the Spanish equivalent of cancel culture, a social media phenomenon where someone can lose massive public support overnight. Used across all Spanish-speaking countries, especially on Twitter, TikTok, and Instagram.
“He got canceled on Twitter for a comment from five years ago.”
“Cancel culture got out of hand.”

Irse de pinta
To skip school or work without permission to go do something more fun. In Mexico, "irse de pinta" is the classic teenage escape from class, sneaking out to hang at the park, the mall, or anywhere that is not a classroom. It is the universal student rebellion wrapped in a very Mexican phrase.
