It's an insult, often used among friends. The severity of the insult varies from place to place. When I lived in Caracas it amounted to "idiot" or "fool". You'll hear it on Venezuelan telenovelas. In other parts of the world, Mexico, for example, it's a very, very strong vulgar word. Be careful when, where, and to whom you use it. In fact, just don't use it unless you're absolutely sure the person you're talking to won't punch you in the nose.

Well, it is spelled wrong and can be considered rather vulgar, so I'll give you the simple definition -idiot

The word "bendejo" in Spanish it's wrong spelled. It must start the word with the letter "p",and it's meaning is close to: stupid; so fool; ignorant. This is an idea.

it also means a-hole, like a derogatory term for someone. but can be used for vulgar bantering between friends.

Type it with a "p" instead of a "b" in the dictionary and see what comes up.
