/Sounds like "tee" (as in "tea") + "kees" (as in "keep") + "MEE" (as in "me") + "kees" (as in "keep")/
An extremely fussy, nitpicky person who obsesses over tiny details and complains about everything. Used in Colombia and Venezuela, a "tiquismiquis" is the person who sends back perfectly good food over a minor issue, or rewrites a message twelve times because one comma feels off.
“You're so picky; the rice is perfectly fine.”
“Don't invite that nitpicker; he complains about everything from the moment he arrives.”

Caballo
A brute, a clumsy and rough person who handles everything without care or finesse. In Argentina, Spain, and Uruguay, a caballo does not necessarily mean to cause damage, they just lack any delicacy in what they do, whether driving, talking, or touching things they probably should not.
