/Sounds like "ah" (as in "art") + "BLAHR" (as in "blah") + "PAH" (as in "park") + "TRAHS" (as in "tract")/
Chicano Spanglish for calling someone back, a calque of English "call back." It does not mean speaking backwards: it simply means returning a missed call.
“I'm busy right now, I'll call you back later.”
“The boss called but I didn't pick up, I'll call him back when I leave work.”
