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

/Sounds like "DAHR" (as in "dart") + "bohl" (as in "boat") + "teh" (as in "ten") + "REH" (as in "red") + "tahs" (as in "tar")/

Meaning

To keep flip-flopping and never commit to a decision. Someone who "da volteretas" changes their mind constantly, says one thing today and the opposite tomorrow, and leaves everyone around them frustrated and unable to make plans.

Examples

He keeps flip-flopping on every decision, weeks in and still no answer.

Stop going back and forth and just tell me if you're coming or not.

Regional synonyms
