Picong or Piquant is light comical banter, usually at someone else's expense. It is the way in which West Indians (particularly those in the Eastern Caribbean) tease, heckle and mock each other in a friendly manner. However, the line between humour and insult is fine and constantly shifting, and at times the convivial spirit may degenerate into more heated debate and perhaps, physical altercations. The ability to engage in picong without crossing over into insult is highly valued in the culture of calypso music.

  • ピコン（picong またはpiquant）は、トリニダード・トバゴで、他の誰かに対する、軽いユーモアのある冷やかし。好意的な態度をもって、お互いをやじり倒して馬鹿にする。それは気分が悪くなるような侮辱ではなく、ユーモアと侮辱のギリギリのラインは守られる。日常生活での口喧嘩や討論においても用いられ、高いユーモアを保っている人は「ピコンがある」と評される。 また、カリプソの歌詞の中では、ピコンは特徴的な要素だ。カリプソニアン同士が、即興の歌や語り（エクステンポ、extempo）で競争相手を罵倒するカリプソ・ウォー (calypso war) においても、ピコンは重要な要素として評価される。 (ja)

Playwright Steve Carter, who wrote an award-winning play of the same name, describes pecong as a "verbal battle of insults hurled in rhymed verse." (en)
