cebulak

A derogatory term for an envious person, who wishes others harm, while not knowing how to behave, wants to show off at all costs, which makes him often live beyond his means, although he tries to save on everything. Such a person sometimes has thieving tendencies and does not care about the rules, wanting to come out on top. The word is usually applied to Poles by their compatriots.
