/Sounds like "toh" (as in "toll") + "MAH" (as in "mark") + "doh" (as in "door")/
Drunk, under the influence of alcohol. A softer way to say it than "borracho," but the effect is the same: someone who has had too much and it shows. Common in Peru, Colombia, and Chile.
“He was drunk when the traffic police pulled him over.”
“You can tell he's had too much, better call him a cab before he tries to drive.”

Juquiao
Completely wasted, blackout drunk, the kind of drunk where you cannot find the door or remember how you got there. In Puerto Rico, juquiao describes a seriously advanced state where the body has basically stopped cooperating. The word likely comes from "hooked," as in fully hooked on the drink.
