/Sounds like "koh" (as in "coat") + "MEHR" (as in "met") + "seh" (as in "set") + "EHL" (as in "egg") + "KWEHN" (as in "quest") + "toh" (as in "toll")/
To fall completely for a lie or fake story without questioning it. Literally "to eat the tale," this expression from Argentina and Chile describes someone who swallows a false version of events hook, line, and sinker, usually because they wanted to believe it.
“Se comió el cuento del negocio de inversión y perdió todos sus ahorros.”
“He fell for the investment scam and lost all his savings.”
“No te comas el cuento, eso no es lo que parece a primera vista.”
“Don't buy into it, things are not what they appear to be.”

A ton, way too much, an insane amount, the ultimate Venezuelan intensifier that multiplies any adjective by a thousand. You slap burda in front of anything and it instantly becomes extreme.
