/FU-lo/
A fair-skinned, blonde, or redheaded person in Panama and Central America. Not an insult — it's simply a physical descriptor. In countries where most people have darker features, the 'fulo' stands out visually and the nickname sticks naturally.
Example
"That new blond kid in class is the son of an American."
"The fair-skinned girl on the corner always gets sunburned."
