/Sounds like the English word "no" (same pronunciation) + "ah" (as in "art") + "GWAHN" (as in "Guam") + "tah" (as in "tar") + "NAH" (as in "nacho") + "dah" (as in "dart")/

Meaning

Someone who is super sensitive and gets offended or upset by the smallest joke or comment in Mexico. The person who no aguanta nada snaps instantly at anything.

Examples

I made a tiny joke and he already got mad, he can't take anything.

Don't say a word to him, he can't take a joke and gets all bent out of shape.

Regional synonyms

To be excellent, to crush it, or to come through in a huge way. In Mexico, telling someone they rifa is a big compliment, it means they give their all and never let you down.
