/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.”

Tarjeta
A payment card, either debit or credit. In Mexico, asking for the terminal to pay with card is normal in most stores and restaurants, although markets, street stalls, and neighborhood taquerías still prefer cash. Always carry both, because half the city runs on plastic and the other half doesn't.
