/Sounds like "peh" (as in "pet") + "leh" (as in "let") + "CHAHR" (as in "chat")/
To bounce back financially and get back on your feet after a rough stretch. In Colombia and Venezuela, when someone "ya pelechó" the recovery is visible in everything: how they dress, how they talk, how they carry themselves. The hard times are clearly behind them.
“Since he landed that contract he has really bounced back, you can tell in everything about him.”
“We finally got back on our feet and now we can pay our bills without any stress.”

A soft exclamation of mild surprise you let out when something catches you off guard, but it is not the end of the world. Think of it as the innocent, low-intensity version of "no manches." Mexicans use it for small shocks: finding out gossip, missing the bus, or discovering something unexpected.
