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") + "LEEM" (as in "lead") + "pyoh"/

Meaning

Flat broke, with absolutely zero money. Used in Cuba, Mexico, and Venezuela for that moment when your pockets are completely empty and all you can do is wait for something to come in.

Examples

I'm completely broke, I don't even have enough for the bus.

After the vacation I was cleaned out, I need the next paycheck to arrive.

Short for "outfit of the day." A social media post where someone shows off what they're wearing that day. A classic fashion tag used widely across Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter.
