/Sounds like "reh" (as in "red") + "PEE" (as in "pea") + "sah" (as in "salsa")/
A small shelf mounted on the wall to hold books, plants, or decorative objects. The go-to solution when you have limited floor space but plenty of wall, and it has become a staple of interior decor content across Latin America and Spain.
“Puse una repisa en el salón para los libros y quedó genial.”
“I put up a shelf in the living room for books and it looks great.”
“The bathroom shelf fell off the wall with everything on it, what a disaster.”

Papelón
A public embarrassment big enough for everyone to witness and remember. Making a papelón means you messed up in front of an audience: forgot your speech, fell down the stairs at work, or said something completely wrong in a meeting. The shame has witnesses.
