Your word isn't here yet

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

/Sounds like "soh" (as in "solo") + "PLAHR" (as in "plan") + "seh" (as in "set") + "OO" (as in "Uber") + "nah" (as in "nacho")/

Meaning

To down a full drink in one shot, or by extension to sit through something tedious without any choice. In Mexico the same verb covers chugging a beer solo or enduring a boring two-hour meeting.

Examples

He polished off the whole big beer by himself before anyone else arrived.

I had to sit through two hours of meetings without saying a word.

Regional synonyms

To have it in for someone, to hold a quiet grudge and be constantly watching for any excuse to go after them. In Mexico, when someone "te trae entre ojos" they have you in their sights and everything you do gets scrutinized.
