Your word isn't here yet

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

/Sounds like "bah" (as in "bar") + "LYOH" + "BEHR" (as in "bed") + "gah" (as in "garden")/

Meaning

A crude Mexican expression meaning something failed, got ruined, or went completely wrong with no way to fix it. The bluntest, most final way to say it is totally done for.

Examples

The whole project got deleted without saving, it's completely screwed.

If the boss shows up and sees us here, we're toast.

Regional synonyms

To be absolutely furious and about to explode, like water reaching its boiling point right before the chocolate goes in. When someone is in this state, your best bet is to keep your distance and not say a word.
