/Sounds like "pahn" (as in "park") + "SAH" (as in "salsa") + "soh" (as in "solo")/
A belly flop: hitting the water or ground flat on your stomach with maximum impact and minimum dignity. The classic panzazo is jumping into the pool thinking you nailed a dive and coming up with your whole belly red. Painful, loud, and everyone saw it.
“He belly-flopped into the pool and splashed everyone.”
“He hit the ground so hard at the park you could hear it from far away.”
/Sounds like "pahn" (as in "park") + "SAH" (as in "salsa") + "soh" (as in "solo")/
In Mexico, barely scraping by with the minimum required, passing something by the thinnest possible margin. It also refers to belly-flopping onto water or the ground with full surface impact.
