/el no-PAL en lah FREN-teh/
A reference to someone who denies their Mexican or indigenous roots while being obviously Mexican. If you have un nopal en la frente — a cactus on your forehead — your origins are written all over your face.
"Don't deny you're Mexican — you've got it written all over your face."
"He goes around pretending to be from elsewhere and you can tell he's Mexican from a mile away."
