When speaking Panamanian Spanish, avoid these offensive terms: “Juega vivo” can be insulting, implying someone is a trickster. “Chombo” can be a racial slur. “Cueco” is a homophobic slur. “Chucha” is a strong expletive. Even seemingly innocent words like “pela’o” (kid) can be disrespectful in certain contexts.
