/Sounds like "BROH" (as in "bro") + "kee" (as in "keep")/
A close friend, buddy, or homie. From the English "bro" with the Caribbean "-ki" ending added for warmth and rhythm. Widely used in Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, and Cuba: warm, casual, and the word you reach for when "friend" just does not feel close enough.
“What is up, bro? It has been a while since I last saw you.”
“That is my lifelong best friend, I have known him since we were kids.”
