Baaloul

Baaloul, in Tunisian Arabic, is a derogatory term generally used to describe a person perceived as foolish, idiotic, naive, or gullible. The intensity of the insult can vary depending on context and tone, ranging from playful teasing to severe disparagement. The term implies a lack of intelligence or common sense and suggests the person is easily tricked or manipulated. While its literal translation is not directly offensive, the implied meaning and social context render it a strong insult.
