Baboso

The slang term “baboso” is often used in Spanish to refer to someone who is foolish, naive, or easily deceived. It is similar to the English term “fool” or “dope.”

In a more detailed description, “baboso” can be used to describe a person who is gullible and falls for tricks or scams easily. It can also be used to mock someone who acts foolishly or behaves in a silly manner, often lacking common sense or wisdom.

Example 1: No seas tan baboso, no le prestes dinero a alguien que apenas conoces. (Don’t be so foolish, don’t lend money to someone you barely know.)

Example 2: Mi amigo siempre hace cosas babosas; siempre cae en las mismas trampas. (My friend always does foolish things; he always falls for the same traps.)
