Bandera de México

/Sounds like "san" (as in "sandwich") + "gron" (rhymes with "dawn" but with a G and roll the R)/

An unfriendly, stuck up person who rubs everyone the wrong way with their arrogant, condescending, or cold attitude in Mexico. A sangrón is someone who looks down on you for no reason, does not even bother to say hello, and has a special talent for making everyone around them feel uncomfortable.

Example

"Qué sangrón ese tipo, ni saluda cuando llega. -> That guy is so stuck up, he doesn't even say hi when he arrives."

"No seas sangrona y al menos di buenos días. -> Don't be so rude, at least say good morning."
