/Sounds like "bah" (as in "bar") + "kah" (as in "car") + "LAH" (as in "lava") + "oh" (as in "oh")/
Skinny, scrawny, with no muscle or body mass. In Venezuela and Puerto Rico, bacalao describes someone so thin they look like they don't eat, all bones and skin with nothing on top.
“He's all bacalao, needs to eat more and hit the gym.”
“As bacalao as you are, the wind's gonna blow you away.”
