/Sounds like "peh" (as in "pet") + "GAHR" (as in "garden") + "EHL" (as in "egg") + "GREE" (as in "greet") + "toh" (as in "toll")/
To complain loudly, to call someone out or protest without holding anything back. In Colombia, when you "pegar el grito" you let it all out and you do not care who is watching. It is not just grumbling quietly: it is a full vocal reaction to something that crossed the line.
“When he saw the mechanic's bill he blew up right there on the spot.”
“You have to speak up if the neighbor won't turn down that music.”

Estar sacado
To be furious and completely out of control in Chile, when the anger takes over and you stop thinking clearly. You are acting purely on impulse because the rage consumed you and nobody can calm you down.
