/Sounds like "too" (as in "tool") + "toom" (as in "tool") + "POH" (as in "port") + "teh" (as in "ten")/
In the Dominican Republic, a rich or powerful member of the elite, typically politicians, business owners, or the old upper class who live in a completely different world from everyone else. The word is dismissive but not vulgar, carrying a popular critique of inequality.
