/Sounds like 'preh-soo-MEE-doh'/

Someone obsessed with showing off — their money, looks, clothes, or accomplishments — constantly seeking validation. In Mexico, Spain, and Colombia, the presumido can't resist a mirror or a crowd. They're not just proud; they need you to know exactly how great they think they are.

Example

"Es tan presumido que siempre saca el coche nuevo. → "He's such a show-off — he always brings up his new car."

"No seas presumida, no todo tiene que ser sobre ti. → "Don't be so vain — not everything has to be about you."
