/Sounds like "kohl" (as in "coat") + "GAH" (as in "garden") + "doh" (as in "door")/
Scattered, always off in their own world. A colgado forgets commitments, misses plans, and shows up two hours late without a care. In Argentina and Uruguay it is often used affectionately for someone hopelessly absent-minded rather than as a serious insult.
“Don't give him anything important, he's so scatterbrained he'll never follow through.”
“I completely spaced out and forgot we were supposed to go together.”

Ya fue
Peruvian expression for writing something off as lost or over, with no chance of fixing it. When you say "ya fue," you accept it and move on.
