I hear a lot of spanish speaking people call people "Cavron" or something like that. What does it mean?

it is cabron and literally means big goat, and it referred to those men whose women were cheating on them but nowadays we use it to define someone who has a bad behaviour with us or who does wrong to us.
it is not always used as an offense, it is not such a "strong" word in spain people use it even with friends just to say that someone is naughty, "que cabrón/cabrona eres!"

It's a curse word, and its has thousands of meanings. The closest equivalent is the F** word in English, with mother at the beginning, in all the good, bad, angry and whatever meanings and moods you listen to it.
If you're really interested, you could try reading "El laberinto de la soledad" by Octavio Paz. In this book (for which he received the Novel, by the way), he has two chapters on this and other curse words, within the Mexican context.

Yeah cabron/a can be a time period of endearment. It truly ability bastard. in undemanding words use this note in case you know the man nicely adequate inspite of the actuality that. If the different individual calls it to you first, then you definately can say it back to them.

The word is not used in polite company and is Cabron. It is a goat but colloquially refers to a man whose woman is cheating on him

Cavron means nothing, it's cabrón (BOY) cabrona(girl). Adding an S to form plurals.
It means Player or b¡tch...Also, it means that you are very good at something, like:
Juan es un cabrón para bailar.
Juan is damn good dancing.
----> Or it can mean that someone is tremendous, or if he/she has bad behavior...
¡CABRÓN!---¡CABRONA!

It is Cabron and it is slang for a word that rhymes with trucker.
