Yeyo
/Sounds like "YEH" (as in "yes") + "yoh" (as in "yoke")/
Meaning
A fainting spell, a panic attack, or an extreme fright in Puerto Rico and Mexico. Also used hyperbolically to describe an over-the-top reaction to shocking news. If something sends you into a full-body panic spiral, you got a yeyo.
Examples
“I nearly fainted when I saw the spider in the bathroom.”
“She is going to have a full meltdown when she hears what happened.”
