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

/Sounds like "DAHR" (as in "dart") + "seh" (as in "set") + "TAH" (as in "tar") + "koh" (as in "coat")/

Meaning

To show off, to brag, to flaunt what you have. In Mexico, when someone "se da taco" they are making sure everyone notices how great they are, whether it is their car, their clothes, or their accomplishments. It is pure peacocking.

Examples

He's showing off big time with his new car.

Stop bragging so much, we all know the truth.

Regional synonyms

An exaggerated, over-the-top gesture or attitude in Peru where someone overacts to get attention. Making a "disfuerzo" means putting on an unnecessary show.
