/Sounds like "MEH" (as in "met") + "dyah" + "PEE" (as in "pea") + "lah" (as in "lava")/
Ecuadorian expression for putting in effort and not being lazy. You say it when someone needs a little push because they are only going halfway on something.
“Put some effort in. That game is not going to win itself.”
“Give it some gas with the homework. Finals are coming up fast.”

A one-time job that is not on any payroll or contract. In Chile, it is the quick fix when money is running out, whatever comes your way before the end of the month. Similar to a gig or odd job in English, but with a warmer, more informal feel.
