EN: skyrocket (firecracker)
This is that New Year's Eve firecracker that goes "fweeeeeee" up into the sky before it goes "BOOM!". The 'skyrocket' type. It's the one your tito buys to show the neighbors who has the best fireworks display. The name itself sounds like the "whoosh" it makes.
Possibly from Spanish 'luces' (lights).
Specifically refers to a skyrocket-type firework, not all fireworks in general (which is 'paputok').
