I've mostly been called "wedo" by my latam neighbors
Yeah that's guero, sounds like 'wedo'
Lol see thats just how white I am. Never felt it was a slur, in fact more a term of endearment like when the lady at the corner store calls me mijo
I think thats Guero. mostly Mexicans use that, it just means like "white person/european looking", it's very common for friends/couples/vendors to call people that. In some countries in South America (and Haiti) we usually call loved ones and friends "black person" because that mostly means bro/darling/sweetie even if they're white.
Lmao I am just realizing that is the actual word for the first time because I am comically white. I have never once been offended by either, though I will say when I hear gringo something about it sounds a tad more aggressive, at least in the context I usually hear it.
If someone says like "Gringo de Mierda" they are just being rude towards you. But the word Gringo itself is harmless
