/Sounds like "ehn" (as in "egg") + "tah" (as in "tar") + "koo" (as in "cool") + "CHAHR" (as in "chat") + "seh" (as in "set")/

Meaning

To dress up in a suit or formal clothes, way beyond your usual style. In Mexico, entacucharse means putting on a blazer or formal attire for a special occasion or to impress someone. If someone shows up in a suit at a casual hangout, they definitely got entacuchados.

Examples

Where are you going all dressed up at this hour?

I'm going to get all suited up for my cousin's wedding, I can't show up like this.
