Your word isn't here yet

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

/Sounds like "ehs" (as in "egg") + "TAHR" (as in "tar") + "AHL" (as in "art") + "PAH" (as in "park") + "loh" (as in "loan")/

Meaning

To be fully pumped up, energized, and ready to go, with zero need to be convinced or warmed up. In Chile, "estar al palo" means you are already activated and eager for whatever is about to happen.

Examples

I am totally fired up for tomorrow's game, do not even ask.

Are you guys up for going out tonight or not?

Regional synonyms
Bandera de México
Estar al cien

To chatter away about nothing in particular, filling the air with words that lead nowhere. Slightly dismissive in tone: it is not real conversation, just noise. The kind of talking where two hours pass and you walk away with nothing useful at all.
