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

An exclamation of surprise, frustration, or admiration in Guatemala and El Salvador. It's the Central American equivalent of 'dang' or 'wow', versatile and safe enough for any audience.
