papi — grandpa / gramps / papi
Notes
Your grandfather (standard everyday family term). Also used affectionately or in a flirty/sexual brain-rot sense (exactly like Spanish “papi” slang — e.g. “yes papi”, “papi chulo energy”, dominant or cute “papi” vibe in TikTok/Douyin/Reddit chats). Dual-purpose word that works for both literal family and playful/sexual slang, just like dadĥi.
