Bandera de Perú

/Sounds like 'ko-HOO-do'/

In Peru, a stupid or naive person who acts without thinking. One of the most commonly used insults in the country, though among close friends it can shift into something almost affectionate.

Example

"Idiot! What on earth did you do that for?"

"That doofus forgot to bring the keys."
