/Sounds like "sah" (as in "salsa") + "peh" (as in "pet" without "t") + "ROH" (as in "row") + "koh" (as in "coal")/
A big mess, chaotic commotion, or a problem that erupts out of nowhere and escalates fast. In Venezuela, a zaperoco is when everything goes sideways and everybody's yelling.
"A huge mess broke out at the party when two guys started fighting."
"What's all this commotion about? I leave for five minutes and chaos."
