/Sounds like "hye" (as in "hi") + "LOHN" (as in "loan")/
A person from the upper class who's stuck-up and acts superior in Bolivia. They think they're better than everyone else because of their money, last name, or social status, and they never miss a chance to show it.
“He got all snobby since he started at that private university.”
“Don't be so stuck-up and come down from your cloud.”
