/Sounds like "peh" (as in "pet") + "ree" (as in "reed") + "KAH" (as in "car") + "soh" (as in "solo")/
In Mexico, an epic night of heavy drinking that you won't forget anytime soon. Going out for a pericazo means getting seriously hammered in one sitting, usually at a party or a send-off. The kind of night that ends in a taxi and starts with a very slow morning.
“Se pusieron un pericazo en la despedida de soltero, llegaron en taxi.”
“They went all out at the bachelor party and had to cab it home.”
“Qué pericazo se echaron anoche, no aparecieron hasta el mediodía.”
“What a bender they went on last night, nobody showed up until noon.”
/Sounds like "peh" (as in "pet") + "ree" (as in "reed") + "KAH" (as in "car") + "soh" (as in "solo")/
In Mexico, a really hard hit or blow that actually hurts, the kind that leaves a mark or bruise. The "-azo" suffix cranks up the intensity: this was not a little bump, it was a serious impact.
“He took a hard fall off his bike and ended up with a bruise.”
“He slammed the door so hard he bent it.”

Achicar
In Argentina and Uruguay, to intimidate someone until they back down, or to shrink back yourself under pressure or fear. "Achicarse" means caving when you should hold firm, showing weakness when the situation demands you stand your ground.
