Your word isn't here yet

Join Hablaaa and add the expression no one else has documented.

/Sounds like "pah" (as in "park") + "ROH" (as in "row") + "loh" (as in "loan")/

Meaning

In Colombia, flat broke with nothing to spare, not even bus fare. You are surviving on creativity alone until payday rolls around.

Examples

No me invites a comer, estoy parolo hasta el viernes.

Don't invite me out to eat, I'm completely broke until Friday.

¿Vamos a rumbear? No puedo, estoy parolo.

You going out to party? I can't, I'm dead broke.

Something so incredible or mind-blowing it leaves you speechless. In Spain it's used a lot to describe experiences or things that surprise you in the best way. Comes from 'flipar.'.
