/Sounds like "MAH" (as in "mark") + "heh" (as in "help")/
In Nicaragua, a universal address term used between friends, the equivalent of "dude" or "bro." It's the most iconic filler word in Nicaraguan speech.
“What's up, dude, how are you doing?”
“That guy always shows up late to everything.”

Idiot, fool, or just a casual way to say "dude" in Honduras, Nicaragua, and El Salvador. It can be an insult or a friendly filler word depending on your tone and how close you are with the person. Central Americans throw it around constantly in conversation, kind of like Mexicans use "wey.".
“Don't be an idiot, that was obviously a lie.”
“What's up, dude? How'd it go?”

Corte
Secondhand embarrassment or intense cringe you feel watching someone else get humiliated. When something "da corte" in Mexico, it creates a visceral discomfort that makes you want to vanish from the scene entirely.
