Your word isn't here yet

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

/Sounds like "peh" (as in "pet") + "tah" (as in "tar") + "dee" (as in "deep") + "SEE" (as in "see") + "moh" (as in "more")/

Meaning

Absolutely packed, completely crammed with people to the point where you can't fit a single extra person. It's the superlative form of "petado" in Spain, describing the maximum level of overcrowding. When a place is "petadísimo," you're shoulder to shoulder and probably sweating from the body heat alone.

Examples

The school was absolutely packed with people, you couldn't even walk.

The concert was completely jammed, the heat was unbearable.

Marijuana, weed, or cannabis, one of the oldest terms in Mexican slang for the plant. 'Yesca' predates most modern vocabulary and comes from the word for tinder or kindling, dried plant material that catches fire easily. Still used, especially by older generations.
