/Sounds like "EH" + "seh" (as in "set" without the "t")/
A way to address someone, especially among Chicanos and Mexican Americans. It comes from Caló, the Chicano street dialect, and is used to call out to another guy. Depending on tone and context, it can be friendly and respectful or confrontational. It became iconic through Chicano culture and is widely recognized in movies, music, and street culture across the US and Mexico.
"Oye, ese, ¿qué onda contigo? -> Hey, ese, what's up with you?"
"Ese vato es mi ese, lo conozco desde la escuela. -> That dude is my homeboy, I've known him since school."

Acera
Espacio pavimentado al costado de la calle para que caminen los peatones de forma segura. Es la zona sagrada del peatón que los carros deberían respetar pero que en muchas ciudades invaden sin piedad.
