Problema is the spanish word for "problem".

There is no such word as "problemo" in spanish, though many americans
seem to think there is."

Thanks for the linguistic tip. Actually, "no problemo" is American (with
a capital A) slang for "it's nothing at all, my pleasure". It has no
roots in either Spanish (with a capital S) or Italian (with a capital
I), though it produces rhizomes once in a while.

"Problemo" is thought by some authorities to be derived from a
similar-sounding word in English (with a capital E) -- but I know
nothing of this, as I have no fluency in that language.
