/Sounds like "BREE" (as in "breeze") + "hee" (as in "he") + "doh" (as in "door")/
Intense, extreme, or over-the-top, in either direction. In Chile, "brígido" describes anything that hits hard: a spice that burns your mouth, a person who gets in your face, or a party situation that escalated fast. If something is brígido, it is not subtle and it is definitely not forgettable.
“That spice is insanely hot, I can't handle it.”
“A really intense fight broke out at the party.”

Altoque
Right away, instantly, no waiting around. Used in Argentina, Peru, and Uruguay, altoque is the most direct way to say something needs to happen now. It comes from "al toque" compressed into one word, and that compression says everything about the urgency.
