/Sounds like "koo" (as in "cool") + "leh" (as in "let") + "BRYAHR"/
To act like a snake, making underhanded moves and betraying people behind their backs. In Colombia and Venezuela, "culebriar" describes the ongoing behavior of someone who smiles to your face while scheming against you. The damage only surfaces after it is already done.
“He kept backstabbing everyone until they finally figured him out and cut him off.”
“Stop playing both sides or you're going to end up with no one.”

Mazo
A Spanish intensifier meaning a lot, very, or super. Young people in Spain use "mazo" constantly in everyday conversation to amplify anything: "me gusta mazo" (I like it a lot), "es mazo difícil" (it is super hard), "hay mazo gente" (there are tons of people). It is very much a Spain thing and you will rarely hear it in Latin America. Think of it as the Spanish equivalent of saying "hella" or "mad" as intensifiers in American English.
