Tips to remember:
• Associate “tomátela” with the image of “taking” something away from someone—as if you’re “taking” them out of your life. The sound “tomá” can remind you of “toma” (take) but with a twist that means “buzz off.”
• Think of it as a sharp, colloquial way to tell someone “get lost.”

Explanations:
• “Tomátela” is an imperative (command) expression used colloquially in some Spanish-speaking regions (such as in Argentina) to mean “get lost.”
• Although literally it comes from the verb “tomar” (“to take”), in this idiomatic use the phrase isn’t about physically taking anything; it’s a dismissive command toward someone.
• The construction attaches the pronoun “la” to the verb, and the accent in “tomátela” helps maintain the correct stress when the pronoun is added.

Other words/expressions with a similar meaning:
• “Piérdete” (“get lost”)
• “Lárgate” (“scram” or “beat it”)
• “Vete” (“go away”)
