/Sounds like "pee" (as in "pea") + "KAH" (as in "car") + "doh" (as in "door")/
Someone who is upset, offended, or silently holding a grudge. In Argentina, Uruguay, and Chile, a picado person will not come out and say they are bothered, but it shows in every gesture, every long silence, and every subtle attitude.
“Quedó muy picado porque no lo invitaron al proyecto.”
“He was really sore because they left him out of the project.”
“Se nota que está picado: no habla con nadie y evita las reuniones.”
“You can tell she's upset: she's not talking to anyone and keeps avoiding meetings.”
/Sounds like "pee" (as in "pea") + "KAH" (as in "car") + "doh" (as in "door")/

“The Sunday kickabout ended in an argument as usual.”
