EN: mite, small tick
It's that tiny, annoying pest you can barely see but definitely feel. Think of it as the micro-influencer of the insect world—small, but causes major irritation. Not the kind of 'tungo' (direction) you want to be headed towards.
This is a less common meaning than the preposition. The pronunciation differs, with stress on the second syllable.
