/Sounds like "tee" + "lee" + "co" (as in "cocoa")/
A super skinny or scrawny person, someone who looks like they haven't eaten in days. In Mexico this word lands somewhere between affectionate and teasing depending on the context, and it is often followed by a suggestion to go eat some tacos to fix the situation.
"Ese morro está bien tilico, necesita echarse unos tacos. -> That kid is way too skinny, he needs to eat some tacos."
"No seas tilico, come algo que te vas a desmayar. -> Don't be so scrawny, eat something or you're gonna pass out."

Espacio pavimentado al costado de la calle para que caminen los peatones de forma segura. Es la zona sagrada del peatón que los carros deberían respetar pero que en muchas ciudades invaden sin piedad.
