Bandera de Colombia
Bandera de México

/Sounds like "keh" (as in "kept" without "pt") + "OH" (as in "go") + "soh" (as in "so")/

An expression of intense embarrassment when something cringy, ridiculous, or painfully awkward happens in front of everyone. It's the automatic reaction when someone makes a fool of themselves and everyone wishes the ground would swallow them whole.

Example

"Qué oso! He forgot his girlfriend's name."

"How embarrassing that I fell on the stairs."

"It was so awkward when he sat at the wrong table."
