hijo
Boy to parents
Hijo is Spanish for son.
In English contexts, it appears in expressions borrowed from Spanish: mijo (a contraction of *mi hijo*, my son) is a term of endearment, and hijo de puta means son of a whore—a strong insult.
The word sometimes appears in dialogue or settings with Spanish-speaking characters.
