/Sounds like "GEE" (as in "geese") + "rroh"/

Meaning

A Honduran word for a kid, little boy, or child, especially when running around or getting into trouble. It's close to "cipote" but with a Catracho Spanish tone. Used with affection, mild exasperation, or just to describe the kid at home, in the neighborhood, or in town. The word marks regional identity: only Hondurans drop it naturally.

Examples

That kid won't sit still.

The neighbor's kids.
