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") + "OH" (as in "oh") + "trah" (as in "tract")/

Meaning

To be completely spaced out, mentally somewhere else, not paying any attention to what's happening around you. The person who is "en otra" seems to be living in their own private movie.

Examples

I'm talking to you and you're completely zoned out, what's going on?

I was totally spaced out the whole meeting and have no idea what they talked about.

To split the bill equally among everyone present in Chile, the unspoken agreement that each person pays their share so nobody gets stuck with the whole check. It's financial justice among friends.
