This Chilean slang phrase is used to describe a person or situation that is overly complicated or difficult. The literal translation is 'more rolls than a caterpillar's skid', visualizing the complex twists and turns a caterpillar would take if it were to suddenly stop.
Examples
- Spanish: No entiendo nada, este problema tiene más rollos que frenada de cuncuna.
- English: I don't understand anything, this problem is more complicated than a caterpillar's skid.
