It means affection, and baby, darling, sweetheart, etc. It can be nice and affectionate and welcome if it's to your sweety, or it can be obnoxious and harassing if it's to a stranger.
You know how some norteaméricanos say "hun" (for honey)? A waitress at a diner would say, "what can I get you, hun? A cup of coffee?"
I've heard some Latinos say, 'oye, cariño, ¿me puedes ayudar con algo?" which would be, "hey, hun, can you help me with with something?"
It basically means affection.
it's the panish word for nice
