Your word isn't here yet

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

/Sounds like "SEHR" (as in "set") + "OON" (as in "Uber") + "kah" (as in "car") + "rah" (as in "rapper") + "DOO" (as in "due") + "rah" (as in "rapper")/

Meaning

In Spain, someone with an outrageous amount of nerve who acts with complete shamelessness, takes advantage of others, and never gives anything back. The "cara dura" (hard face) is someone whose shame reflex simply does not work.

Examples

What nerve, cutting the line and then having the gall to complain!

He is a professional freeloader, he never pays his share.

Word family

Something supremely boring and uninteresting. 'Rollo' (bore) combined with 'patatero' cranks up the tedium to maximum, the kind of thing nobody can sit through.
