huevón
idiot / fool (also used affectionately between close friends)expressionvulgarExtremely common in Colombian male informal speech. Between close friends it loses much of its insult weight and functions almost as a term of address. Directed at someone outside that bond, it is clearly an insult. Adjust interpretation based on tone and relationship.
No seas huevón, hombre, y ayúdame a cargar esto.Don't be an idiot, man, help me carry this thing.pirobo
insult equivalent to 'idiot' / 'jerk' (strong, dismissive)expressionvulgarA Colombian-specific insult. Stronger in tone than huevón and rarely used affectionately. Signals real anger or contempt from the speaker.
Ese pirobo me dejó esperando una hora sin avisar nada.That jerk left me waiting for an hour without saying a word.
