/Sounds like "MAHL" (as in "mark") + "DEH" (as in "debt") + "OH" (as in "oh") + "hoh" (as in "hope")/
A folk belief that someone's envious gaze can cause illness, especially in babies and children. It's deeply rooted in Latin American culture, and many families use amulets and rituals to protect against it.
“Put a red bracelet on the baby so nobody gives him the evil eye.”
“My grandma says I got the evil eye because I got sick out of nowhere.”
