Pepe
/Sounds like "PEH" (as in "pet") + "peh" (as in "pet")/
Arrogance, snobbery, or acting like you're better than everyone else without a real reason to. In Chile, "darse pepe" describes the behavior of someone who got a promotion and suddenly forgot where they came from: inflated ego, dismissive attitude, impossible to talk to.
“Don't talk to him, he's been acting all high and mighty since he got promoted.”
“What a show-off that guy made of himself in the meeting.”
