/Sounds like "kahn" (as in "car") + "DEH" (as in "debt") + "lah" (as in "lava")/
Serious trouble or a situation that's burning out of control. In Colombia and Venezuela, "candela" (literally "fire") describes problems that ignite and spread fast. It also refers to a person who stirs up drama wherever they go.
“That business is trouble, don't put your money in there.”
“He got himself into hot water when he said that to the boss in front of everyone.”

Cabreo
A strong burst of anger or frustration that hits when something pushes you completely over the edge. In Spain, cabreo is the word for that seething irritation you carry around after something went seriously wrong, the kind of mood that takes a while to come down from.
