A term of endearment in Chile for someone you love and cherish, especially a child or a partner. It is the kind of nickname you give to the person you fuss over and protect. Warm, affectionate, and very Chilean.
“How is my little sweetheart doing today?”
“He calls his daughter pailita and she absolutely loves it.”

Roto
A lower-class person with rough manners and no refinement. In Chile, 'roto' is a loaded class marker, it can be a sharp insult or used with dark irony. The word has a long history tied to Chilean social stratification and can sting hard.
