rizpo
/phonetic/1.
Police; the fuzz; poh-poh. Often said when discretion is advised and lights are… optional.
(RIZ-poh) - noun, law-enforcement slang. Clever wordplay: porisi (police) spelled backwards → rizpo. Same meaning, lower profile. Register & nuance: street-smart, cautionary. Usually dropped as a warning rather than a label, think "eyes open."
Close cousins: ngonjo, Babylon, port/pot, bhoma. Opposite energy: safe, bho
"Sungai muchichecker coast babamunini, rizpo rekunoku havaridze siren"
Translation: "Mate, always check the coast when you roll the blunt because police here blast through without warning (sirens)"
