Get the cerote mug.
Proper definition is a Turd. People from El Salvador (smallest country in Central America) are known for using the word "cerote" freely amongst one another the way a black person would use the "n" word amongst his homies. It's a word that Salvadorians can use but when another race or nationality uses it towards Salvadorians, ur gettin' yo ass wooped. Cerote can also be used as a deregatory word for people from El Salvador because they use it alot; the same outcome would be if a non-black person would use the "n" word
Que hondas cerote, como estas vos?
Translation:
Wassup homie, how you doing?
