/Sounds like "FREE" (as in "free") + "oh" (as in "oh") + "KOH" (as in "coat") + "moh" (as in "more") + "EHL" (as in "egg") + "OH" (as in "oh") + "yoh" (as in "yoke")/
A Chilean expression for extreme cold, especially common in the southern regions of the country. It is the go-to hyperbole when temperatures drop to genuinely brutal levels. "Hoyo" here is a colloquial stand-in for a very cold and unpleasant place.
“In Punta Arenas it gets absolutely freezing in July, you cannot imagine it.”
“I stepped outside at six in the morning and it was bitterly cold.”

Echar rollo
To talk endlessly without actually saying anything useful. In Mexico, someone who "echa rollo" can speak for twenty minutes and leave you with zero new information. Strongly associated with politicians, salespeople, and anyone dodging a direct question.
