In Chile, “weon” (also spelled “huevón”) is an extremely common slang term that can mean “dude” or “friend”, though it can be offensive in certain contexts. “Compadre” or “comadre” (for women) is a friendly, respectful way to address someone. Young people might use “loco” or “loca” (for women) to refer to friends. “Choro” is another term for a cool friend or acquaintance.
