/Sounds like "peh" (as in "pet") + "KAH" (as in "car") + "doh" (as in "door")/
Something so wrong, so outrageous, or so unjustifiable that it feels like a moral offense. Used colloquially across Spain and Latin America to express strong disapproval of an action or situation, even outside any religious context.
“What he did to his friend was straight-up wrong.”
“Charging that price for something so bad should be illegal.”
/Sounds like "peh" (as in "pet") + "KAH" (as in "car") + "doh" (as in "door")/
Something so delicious, tempting, or pleasurable that you feel guilty enjoying it. The word "sin" repurposed for everyday culinary and moral indulgences, from a chocolate cake that is impossible to stop eating to a dish built entirely on butter, cream, and cheese.
“That chocolate cake is absolutely sinful, I cannot stop eating it.”
“This recipe is a sin: butter, cream, and cheese. All of it.”

Man
A dude, person, or guy in Colombia, borrowed naturally from English. It's so common that a Colombian can use 'man' to refer to literally any human being, 'that man told me yes' works in any conversation.
