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

/Sounds like "sah" (as in "salsa") + "FAH" (as in "far") + "doh" (as in "door")/

Meaning

Someone who's crazy, unhinged, or has a screw loose. In Mexico and Argentina, it describes a person who does wild, irrational things or says outrageous stuff without any filter. It literally means "unhinged" or "loosened," like a bolt that came undone in someone's head.

Examples

You're totally crazy if you think I'm going to jump from there.

That dude is unhinged, yesterday he got into a fight with three guys.

Word family

To deliberately sink someone's reputation or make them look bad, usually through gossip, rumors, or strategic comments in front of the right people. In Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, and Nicaragua, bajundir is the slow, calculated work of an enemy: patient, sneaky, and aimed at social or professional damage.
