Melo
/Sounds like "MEH" (as in "met") + "loh" (as in "loan")/
Cool, awesome, top quality. In Colombia, when something is "melo," it's the real deal: well done, impressive, no complaints. Think of it as the Colombian equivalent of "fire" or "sick," the opposite of mediocre or ordinary.
“That game was awesome, what a goal they scored at the end!”
“Your new apartment is so cool, man, it looks totally luxurious.”

Pecueca
That distinct foot stench that hits the whole room the moment someone takes their shoes off. In Colombia and Venezuela, pecueca is the go-to word for this particular offense, and calling it out is basically a public service. No sugar-coating: if someone has pecueca, everybody knows.
