/Sounds like "peh" (as in "pet") + "TAH" (as in "tar") + "doh" (as in "door")/
Completely packed, crammed with people to the point where there's not an inch of space left. In Spain it's super common to say 'the bar was petado' when you show up and can't even find a place to stand.
“The subway was petado, I couldn't even move.”
“The bar was petado on a Saturday night.”
“The beach is petado in August, impossible to find a spot.”

Twins in Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala. The word comes from the Nahuatl "coatl" meaning twin or serpent, the same root as the Mexican "cuate," but in Central America it keeps the literal meaning of siblings born together.
