* to lay a foundation
Slang used here and there by Young People
v. • Its original meaning is "to lay a foundation", young people use it to say "pre-drink". It makes sense: at predrinks, you literally lay the foundation of the party that comes after.
"A koncert előtt elmegyünk egy haveromhoz alapozni."
"We are going to a buddy of mine's place to lay a foundation before the concert."
