Once we’ve warned you, we can continue with the explanation of its meaning: a “paleto” is someone who’s lived in a village their whole life and hasn’t had any contact with the more urban culture, which is supposedly more refined and advanced, to put it some way. So a “paleto”, apart from being someone with little culture, is also someone cruder, who tends to solve the “city problems” with “country solutions”.
Realizada la advertencia pasamos a explicaros qué significa: un paleto es aquella persona “de pueblo” que, se supone, no ha tenido contacto con una cultura urbana supuestamente más refinada y avanzada. Por lo tanto un “paleto”, además de ser inculto, es algo bruto y tendente a aplicar a los problemas “de ciudad” una filosofía más “de campo”.
