/Sounds like "BEHR" (as in "bed") + "LAH" (as in "lava") + "KAH" (as in "car") + "rah" (as in "rapper")/
To be fooled, tricked, or taken advantage of because of your own good faith in Mexico. When someone "te ve la cara," they played you for a sucker and exploited your trust.
“Don't let them rip you off at that price, it's way too expensive.”
“They played me, I overpaid for something that didn't even work.”

Cumita
An affectionate Bolivian term for a close friend or trusted acquaintance, especially common in La Paz and El Alto. It is the diminutive of "compadre" stripped down to its warmest form. You only say "ey cumita" to someone from your inner circle, never a stranger.
