/Sounds like the English word "palom" + "eh" (as in "egg") + "AHR" (as in "art")/
To check items off a list one by one. In Mexico, "palomear" captures the satisfying ritual of ticking off tasks, named after the checkmark shape called "palomita" (little dove). That small visual reward of progress is built right into the word.
“We're checking things off the to-do list one by one.”
“I ticked off everything on my list, now I can actually rest.”

Quiltrear
To wander aimlessly around the streets in Chile, like a stray dog. Can also mean to hang around somewhere you do not belong or pester people, depending on context.
