/Sounds like 'pah-ree-GWAH-yoh'/
A socially awkward, clueless person who has no street style or cool factor in the Dominican Republic. The pariguayo doesn't read the room, wears the wrong thing, says the wrong thing, and generally misses every social cue. The word itself comes from 'party watcher' — the one who just stands and watches.
"No invites a ese pariguayo, arruina el ambiente. → "Don't invite that awkward dude — he kills the vibe."
"Siempre fue el pariguayo del grupo. → "He was always the odd one out of the group."
Persona tonta, ingenua o que no tiene gracia social. En el Caribe, un pariguayo es el que siempre queda en ridículo.
"Ese pariguayo se creyó todo lo que le contaron."
"No seas pariguayo y ponte las pilas."
