Bandera de México

/vo-LAR-la/

To cross a line, go way too far, or do something that's clearly beyond acceptable limits. In Mexico, when someone 'la voló,' they pushed past every boundary without apology. It can be admirable if the excess is positive, but usually it's the opposite.

Example

"She went way too far with that comment."

"He crossed every line — nobody wanted to deal with him after that."

Regional synonyms:

Ser atractivo, deseado o tener mucha demanda entre las personas. En México y Chile 'cotizar' es estar en la mira de todos por tu atractivo o popularidad.
