/Sounds like "LAH" (as in "lava") + "LAY" (as in "lay") + "DEHL" (as in "debt") + "MEE" (as in "me") + "nee" (as in "knee") + "moh" (as in "more")/
Doing the absolute bare minimum to technically get by, with zero ambition beyond not getting fired or failing. In Mexico and Guatemala, la ley del mínimo describes the art of coasting through work or school without breaking a sweat. Descriptive but often said with some judgment.
“That employee lives by the bare minimum rule and never goes the extra mile.”
“You cannot grow if you spend your whole life just doing enough to get by.”

Aliviane
A favor, a kind act, or help given at exactly the right moment. In Mexico, asking for an 'aliviane' is asking someone to come through for you, a ride to the airport, covering for you at work, lending you money when you're short. When someone gives you an aliviane, you remember it.
