Your word isn't here yet

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

/Sounds like "boh" (as in "boat") + "LAHR" (as in "lava") + "seh" (as in "set")/

Meaning

To leave fast, escape, or bounce from a place without warning in Mexico. It's the art of the discreet exit, when you sense the situation went south or you just don't wanna be there a minute longer.

Examples

I dipped from the meeting because it was so boring.

He left work early.

Word family

Someone with wild, messy, or disheveled hair sticking out in every direction. In Guatemala and Honduras, pelibuche describes someone who clearly just rolled out of bed and has not looked in a mirror yet.
