/Sounds like "KWEH" + "ro" (as in "roll" without the "ll")/
A way to call someone extremely hot or physically attractive in Caribbean and Latin American Spanish. Calling someone "un cuero" is a strong compliment about their looks, similar to saying someone is a total knockout. It is commonly used in Colombia, Dominican Republic, Mexico, and Puerto Rico, often in casual conversations when pointing out how good-looking someone is. The word literally means "leather" or "skin," but in slang it has nothing to do with materials.
"¡Esa mujer es un cuero! -> That woman is a total knockout!"
"El bartender es un cuero, todas le tiran. -> The bartender is super hot, everyone is after him."
Persona sinvergüenza, descarada y sin pudor que hace lo que quiere sin importarle nada. En Venezuela 'cuero' describe a alguien que no tiene vergüenza.
"Es un cuero, se mete con cualquiera sin importarle."
"No seas cuero y ten un poco de dignidad."

Apapachar
Consentir, abrazar con cariño y darle amor a alguien que lo necesita. Viene del náhuatl y es una de las palabras más bonitas que México le regaló al español.
