/Sounds like "pee" (as in "pea") + "TOO" (as in "tool") + "foh" (as in "foam")/
A short person who behaves with an oversized attitude or arrogance. Can also be an affectionate nickname for a small person. The reference to the blue cartoon characters adds immediate humor to the description.
“That little guy thinks he's in charge of everyone.”
“They call you smurf on the team but that doesn't take away from how good you are.”

Achachay
An exclamation for intense cold from the Quechua-influenced Spanish of the Andes. Used in Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia when the mountain cold hits without warning, it is the local equivalent of "brrr!" or "it's absolutely freezing!" So perfectly expressive that even non-Quechua speakers pick it up naturally.
