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") + "EHN" (as in "egg") + "LAH" (as in "lava") + "OH" (as in "oh") + "yah" (as in "yard")/

Meaning

To be completely broke, in total financial ruin with no money at all. When you're 'en la olla,' your bank account is at zero and payday feels like a mirage.

Examples

I'm completely broke until payday.

We're all broke this month, nobody can go out.

A party or casual hangout in Peru where friends get together to have a good time with music, drinks, and conversation. It's the classic Peruvian weekend plan that can start chill and end up epic.
