/Sounds like "gah" (as in "garden") + "YEE" (as in "year") + "toh" (as in "toll")/
Someone who goes around looking for a fight or acts tougher than they really are. Used across Latin America, the gallito is the group troublemaker who always wants to prove something. They posture hard but often back down the moment someone actually calls their bluff.
“He came onto the court acting tough but the moment someone stood up to him he settled right down.”
“That guy picks fights even at weddings, he never learns.”
