A vulgar insult for someone who is stupid, slow, or totally incompetent. It is used to label an individual as useless (In Chile, the term specifically targets lack of intelligence, while in neighboring countries it more commonly refers to a morally bad or shitty person).
Damn, your cousin is such a sorete, I explained how to use the machine three times and he still does not understand anything.
A piece of shit or a turd. The term is also used to describe a bad person, a jerk, or someone despicable. (In Argentina, it is a common vulgarity for someone with poor character).
