/Sounds like "FOH" (as in "foam") + "rroh"/

Meaning

In Argentina and Uruguay, an insult for someone despicable or who acts like a complete jerk. Context matters because the same word also means condom, which adds an extra layer of contempt to the insult.

Examples

No seas forro, devuélveme la plata que me debes.

Don't be a jerk, give me back the money you owe me.

Ese forro me dejó esperando en el restaurante y no avisó nada.

That jerk left me waiting at the restaurant without even a heads-up.
