/Sounds like "tah" (as in "tar") + "KEE" (as in "keep") + "toh" (as in "toll")/
A soccer move where you hit the ball with your heel to surprise the opponent in Mexico. Pure elegance turned into a goal that gets the entire stadium on its feet with screams of amazement.
“He scored a backheel goal and the stadium went wild.”
“That backheel was pure luck.”

Ser un pelmazo
In Spain, an insufferably tiresome and persistent person who never reads the room.

The word comes from "pelma," a dense sticky mass, which is exactly how it feels to be around one.
