Usage notes

edit
  • Although in some contexts zonzo, bobo, tonto, menso, culero, tarado, idiota, imbécil, estúpido and pendejo may be synonyms, in most contexts they have a different degree, zonzo having the mildest connotation, increasing in intensity in roughly that order, to estúpido and pendejo, which are the most offensive.
