/Sounds like "dehs" (as in "debt") + "pah" (as in "park") + "PAH" (as in "park") + "yeh" (as in "yes")/
Colombian slang for a glorious, out-of-control good time. When a party or situation becomes a despapaye, nobody is behaving, nobody is stopping, and everyone is having the time of their life without a care in the world.
“The party turned into total chaos after midnight, everyone dancing out in the street.”
“With my cousins it is always a wild ride. We do not stop laughing all night.”
/Sounds like "dehs" (as in "debt") + "pah" (as in "park") + "PAH" (as in "park") + "yeh" (as in "yes")/
Chaos, total disorder, a situation completely out of control. In Mexico and Central America a despapaye is when everything goes sideways at once and there's no adult in the room.
“That party was pure chaos, a total disaster from start to finish.”
“When the teacher left, the classroom turned into complete mayhem.”

Piropo
A compliment tossed at someone in public, usually about their looks. In Spanish-speaking cultures, piropos range from poetic verses to blunt flattery. How welcome they are depends entirely on context and tone: street piropos are increasingly seen as unwanted in big cities.
