Your word isn't here yet

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

/Sounds like "tee" (as in "tea") + "RAHR" (as in "rapper") + "koh" (as in "coat") + "RRYEHN" + "teh" (as in "ten")/

Meaning

To kill time, lounge around, and do absolutely nothing productive. In Colombia, tirar corriente is the guilt-free art of resting: lying around, chatting idly, watching the ceiling. Not laziness, just a full commitment to switching off.

Examples

She has been lounging around for three hours and has not done a single thing.
