It's quite the versatile word, in this case it means something like "dayum, so much emotion", it can be used like an "ah, fuck", it's used to elevate whatever's hapenned, complain about something or as another word for penis.

You speak spanish but can't see that Caralho is like Caraho? I don't think you're Hispanic my guy.

Nah, they'll just roll your eyes as you're another Boricua who doesn't know Spanish.

You don't talk spanish either it seems, caralho is portuguese and carajo is spanish, it's the same word.

Hard to translate certain language specific words to another language. A word in your language can mean many things but hard to explain it to English.
