Guilo (also transliterated to "gweilo" or "gwai lo"; Chinese: 鬼佬) is Cantonese slang for Westerners. In the absence of modifiers, the term generally applies only to European ethnicities and has a history of racially deprecatory use. Cantonese speakers often use the term to refer to Westerners generally, without derogatory context.
