bombo
/ˈbombo/ · B1 · adj
reckless
🥁 bombo sounds like boom-boom, the sound a bass drum makes
It comes from Latin bombus, a booming sound, the same root as bomb and bombastic. In parts of Latin America it can also mean lukewarm or bland, but the drum is the core sense. Spanish also says a bombo y platillo, meaning with great fanfare.
