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

/Sounds like "DEH" (as in "debt") + "LAH" (as in "lava") + "pah" (as in "park") + "TAH" (as in "tar") + "dah" (as in "dart")/

Meaning

Mexican expression meaning something is really bad, terrible quality, or came out horrible. If something is "de la patada" it is awful, unpleasant, or downright disgraceful.

Examples

Regional synonyms

Being super hyped, anxious, or uncontrollably excited about something that's about to happen. When you've got manija for something you can't wait, the excitement consumes you and you won't stop talking about it.
