Huevon is a ubiquitous Chilean term used as a noun, adjective, or filler. Originally a harsh insult for a man perceived as slow or stupid (suggesting someone with large testicles but no brains), it has evolved significantly. Depending on tone and relationship, it ranges from a friendly dude or girl to a disparaging idiot or asshole. It is used by all social classes and is often abbreviated as wn. Derivatives like wea refer to any object, thing, or situation, similar to the word stuff or crap.
