Pepa
/Sounds like "PEH" (as in "pet") + "pah" (as in "park")/
A pill or tablet in Colombia and Venezuela, used informally for any capsule whether prescription or recreational. Context usually makes the meaning obvious. Can also describe an extremely attractive person, though the pill meaning is far more common in everyday conversation.
“Le recetaron unas pepas para el dolor que lo tumbaron.”
“They prescribed him some strong pills for the pain that knocked him flat out.”
“Esa pelada es una pepa, todo el mundo la mira.”
“That girl is stunning, everyone turns to look at her.”
