Bobo
/Sounds like "BOH" (as in "boat") + "boh" (as in "boat")/
A silly or naive person who gets fooled easily. One of the mildest insults in Caribbean and Latin American Spanish, more "goofy" than genuinely offensive. Calling someone a bobo means they are not reading the situation clearly.
“Don't be naive, read the contract carefully before you sign anything.”
“Only a complete fool would believe that story.”

Chuleta
A mild exclamation of surprise, shock, or annoyance in Panama. It's the go-to softened substitute for a stronger swear word.
