/Sounds like 'soh-PLAH-doh'/
Someone or something impossibly fast — moving at full speed with no slowing down. In Colombia and the Caribbean, soplado describes that person or vehicle that seems to pass by like a gust of wind, barely registering before they're gone.
"Pasó soplado en su moto y casi nos atropella."
"Terminó el examen soplado y se fue primero que todos. → He flew by on his motorcycle and almost ran us over."
"He finished the exam in a flash and was the first one out."
