/Sounds like "meh" (as in "met") + "reen" (as in "reed") + "DAHR" (as in "dart")/
A Central American variation of "merendar": to have a light afternoon snack between lunch and dinner. The mid-afternoon snack break is deeply rooted in local culture, usually featuring tamales, bread, or fruit with coffee. Used in Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica.
“We sat down for tamales at four in the afternoon.”
“What is there to snack on? I am getting hungry.”
