/Sounds like the English word "ond" + "eh" (as in "egg") + "AH" (as in "art") + "doh" (as in "door")/
In Mexico, someone acting weird, off, or completely disconnected from what is happening around them. A person who is ondeado is on their own wavelength and their behavior makes little sense to anyone else in the room.
“That guy is acting really off today, just don't pay attention to him.”
“What is going on with you? You have been weird ever since you got here.”

No dar un palo al agua
A Spanish expression for someone who absolutely refuses to work, not even lifting a finger. The imagery comes from rowing: not giving a single stroke means not moving at all. Always used in the negative, always with a tone of reproach.
