Join Hablaaa and add the expression no one else has documented.

/Sounds like "kah" (as in "car") + "rreh" + "TEH" (as in "ten") + "roh" (as in "row")/

Meaning

Someone who is always ready to go out at night and never misses a party or social gathering. In Chile, a "carretero" is the person in the group who is reliably the first one out and the last one home, no matter what day of the week.

Examples

Es el más carretero del grupo, no se pierde ninguna salida.

He is the biggest party animal in the group, never misses a night out.

Siendo tan carretero, ¿cómo llega al trabajo los lunes?

How does he manage to show up to work on Mondays when he goes out every single weekend?

Word family

Cash money, probably the most common Mexican slang for dinero. It literally means 'wool' and stuck as the most natural way to talk about bills among Mexicans.
