/Sounds like "see" (as in "see") + "FREE" (as in "free") + "noh" (as in "note")/
Venezuela's version of the snobbish upper-class, someone who grew up wealthy, acts like the world owes them service, and treats anyone below their tax bracket with barely concealed contempt. The sifrino is defined by designer brands, private schools, and a complete inability to function without creature comforts.
“That rich kid has never washed a dish in his life.”
“He got really snobbish after his business took off.”
/Sounds like "see" (as in "see") + "FREE" (as in "free") + "noh" (as in "note")/
A Venezuelan person with aristocratic airs, snob, or upper-class who marks distance from others through how they talk, dress, and behave. "Qué sifrino ese tipo" means how pretentious. Used critically: sifrinos are those living in privileged Caracas zones, speaking with a specific accent and showing disdain for popular things. A word from lower class toward upper class, with a dose of humor.
“That bunch of snobs from the Country Club.”
“Don't get all snobby.”
/Sounds like "see" (as in "see") + "FREE" (as in "free") + "noh" (as in "note")/
A Venezuelan word for a snobby, pretentious person from the upper class who treats others with open contempt. The sifrino doesn't just think they're better, they make sure you feel it every time they're around.
“That snob won't even get out of his car.”
“The stuck-up girls at school never said hello to anyone.”
/Sounds like "see" (as in "see") + "FREE" (as in "free") + "noh" (as in "note")/
A stuck-up rich person who flaunts their money, social status, and expensive taste in Venezuela. You can spot them by the designer clothes, brand-new car, the accent, and that air of superiority that annoys everyone.
“That bar is way too sifrino, I don't feel comfortable there.”
“Ever since he moved to the fancy neighborhood he's been acting all sifrino.”
