/Sounds like "PAH" (as in "park") + "kohs" (as in "coat")/
The police, specifically Carabineros, in informal Chilean slang. Los pacos has a street-level feel that is considerably less respectful than saying carabineros. Chile's equivalent of "the cops" or "the fuzz."
“Cuidado que vienen los pacos por esa esquina.”
“Watch out, the cops are coming around that corner.”
“Los pacos cortaron el tránsito por el accidente en la avenida.”
“The police shut down traffic on the avenue because of the accident.”

Perrisimo
Mexican slang for something that is absolutely top-tier, next level, or insanely good. It's the superlative of "perro" used as a compliment. When something is "perrísimo," it's so impressive it's in a class of its own.
