/Sounds like "LAH" (as in "lava") + "krah" (as in "crack")/
A despicable person, a lowlife, or someone with a terrible reputation. Calling someone a lacra means they're the scum of society, a criminal, a deadbeat, or just an absolutely awful human being.
“That guy is a total lowlife, stay away from him.”
“The neighborhood is infested with lowlifes who cause nothing but problems.”

Ñoño
A shy, bookish, or socially awkward person who comes across as naive and unworldly. Think the kid who always had their nose in a textbook and never really hung out after school. In Chile and Argentina the word can sting a little or feel almost affectionate depending on who says it and how.
