/Sounds like "mah" (as in "mark") + "leh" (as in "let") + "TEH" (as in "ten") + "roh" (as in "row")/
The trunk (or boot) of a car: the rear storage space for luggage, grocery bags, and anything that does not fit inside. Called maletero in Spain, Chile, and Peru; baúl in Argentina; cajuela in Mexico. Same compartment, three names.
“No cabe todo en el maletero, tenemos demasiadas maletas.”
“Not everything fits in the trunk, we have way too many bags.”
“El maletero de este coche es enorme, caben hasta las bicis.”
“This car's trunk is massive, you can even fit the bikes in there.”
/Sounds like "mah" (as in "mark") + "leh" (as in "let") + "TEH" (as in "ten") + "roh" (as in "row")/
The trunk of a car, used to store luggage and bags. In Spain and the Southern Cone it is called maletero; in Mexico, cajuela. Either way, it is the place where something has been forgotten since several months ago.
“I squeezed the suitcases into the trunk and they barely fit.”
“The trunk will not close with this much stuff in it. We are going to have to reorganize.”

Callear
To wander the streets without a fixed destination, just to see what is happening or pass the time. In Colombia and Venezuela, callear is the go-to activity when you have no specific plan but staying home is simply not an option.
