The word is spelled güera.

Enter this in the translator for the meaning.

You have to give the masculine form "güero." Even then the translation is not all that good. - Daniela2041, Jul 20, 2016

welcome to the forum. Are you learning Spanish? Can you put your level of Spanish and English on your profile as it helps us when answering questions or assessing answers.

Was it said in friendly circumstances in which case ask them or do you think there was hostility? I assume you have heard it in an area of the States as you referred to the people saying it as 'hispanics'

Julian lives in Mexico and has given you good advice.

I use word reference - here is the entry for güero. There are dictionary entries and various forum discussions.

An umlaut ü isn't used very often in Spanish but when it is it changes the sound so it may sound more like whey after the g.
