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

/Sounds like "hoh" (as in "hope") + "DAH" (as in "dart") + "rryah"/

Meaning

A Nicaraguan word for a problem, mess, or complicated situation you are stuck in. It comes from "joder" but lands with less bite, more like a universal complaint about life getting complicated. You hear "qué jodarria" at work, at home, and on the street whenever something goes wrong and nobody knows how to fix it.

Examples

What a pain, the car broke down on me again.

He got into a real mess with the boss, I don't know how he's going to get out of it.
