/Sounds like "TEHR" (as in "ten") + "moh" (as in "more")/

Meaning

Someone obsessed or way too intense about something or someone, to the point where they simply cannot let it go. Very popular on Argentine and Uruguayan social media for calling out people who are fixated on a topic, a crush, or an ex. Basically the Spanish equivalent of being "down bad" or terminally obsessed.

Examples

Stop stalking her profile, you're way too obsessed.

He's completely fixated on soccer, he doesn't talk about anything else since the match.

Intenso

Cool, quality, excellent, Peru's go-to positive adjective for people and things. Bacán shares roots with Colombia's bacano but in Peru it's been fully localized: it covers a wide range from 'that's nice' to 'that's genuinely impressive.' Reliable, versatile, and very Peruvian.
