I'm half Puerto Rican, lived in the states all my life and don't speak spanish regularly, but i knew every one of those words. wish i had the accent. i love it! thanks for the video nena!
No you full American if born in the states. People here living on the island would be calling you gringa...lol...trust me I live here. Not born but partly raised here. Pero nada ya tu sabe boricua de cora...
Black & Puerto Rican ( basically black ) but my pop ( grandfather ... he's Puerto Rican and Indian ) his family lives in Philly and most of them have moved so far away from their Puerto Rican roots & growing up I hated it. I always wanted to know Spanish and take summer trips to the island etc but it didn't happen. So, I grew up trying to teach myself the Puerto Rican traditions / culture etc. & something really funny is that people call me Dominican all the time ! & im just like nope 🇵🇷
Clearly Ik black and Puerto Rican is the same thing .... but the difference is that Puerto Rico is an island/state and Africa is a continent & I love the skin I’m in so please do not ever try to come for me because I will gladly put you in your place. & the purpose of my comment was to say that I’m trying to experience a different form of culture and learning btw Ik black is a color but it is also a term used to describe the African American race
Ive been looking for this type of videos for a long time!! Im trying to learn Spanish here in Japan, and nobody around me speaks Spanish at all but I find it pointless to pay for Spanish class since its crazy expensive over here. Thank you and I hope you will continue upload vids like this!! Mucho gracias;)
Amoré Cielos Paraíso ignóralo. El no tiene una vida. Los hace para joder. Como el dijo que el le gusta la mujeres boricuas pero no le ponen atención y ahora sabemos porque.
I wish more people would learn about, appreciate, embrace, and celebrate the vast beauty that is all things Puerto Rico! The culture, the music, and... OMG the food! Language is a beautiful bridge. Thank you for this video. Hopefully it will start someone on a voyage of beautiful discovery, appreciation and respect!
I've seen many so called PRican videos trying to discuss our unique vocabulary/slang but miss the mark....this one is more accurate....I just want to make some points clear..... PRicans DO NOT say.... "ahorita", it's "horita". "Revolú" is distinctly PRican. Other distinctly PRican slang words are "mano" which has the same spelling as the word hand in Spanish but "mano" in PRican slang is short for hermano.... meaning a friend. Another PRican slang term for friend, ect is.... "pana". "Acicalao" is when a guy just got out of the barber, he got a fresh haircut or beard trimmed. "Corillo" means a group or gathering of friends hanging out or going somewhere to hang out.
Natalia I'm ready for my lessons When I go back to Puerto Rico I want to speak Spanish mixed with 🇵🇷 slang . Salute to you Natalia & the Boricuas I love y'all
Puerto Ricans are very down to earth, your personality reminds me of some of my camp counselors as a kid , most of which were nuyorican I will never forget all the school yard games they would play with the kids , being good with children seems to be another Puerto Rican trait , very strong maternal energy ...God bless
Natalia, acabo de ver tu vídeo explicando las diferentes expresiones puertorriqueñas. Me has hecho reír, especialmente con lo de ' Ahora y...horita '. Muy orgulloso de ti por dar tan buena impresión de la mujer puertorriqueña, pues es claro que eres bien inteligente, educada, humilde y con un gran sentido del humor y adorable ( very likeable , very swreet ). Continúa haciendo videos así . Nos hace feliz verlos ! Desde mi trabajo en Cataño, Puerto Rico, tu compatriota y amigo. Edwin Oliveras . Gracias y muuuucho éxito !!!
I am from Gran Canaria (coincidentally in a place called Puerto Rico) we say a lot of these. Muchas gracias por educarme sobre la cultura puertorriqueña! ❤️
I'm VENEZUELIAN.. married to a PUERTORICAN...people don't know that we have a lot of PUERTORICAN influence....I'm love with their music..traditions..culture...and of course their music
Ay Dios Mio, I never knew how to spell revolu. Thank you, LOL I was raised with all this. I say horita to my husband, and mother-in-law who are Ecuadorian. We always get confused. You are awesome, you got this stuff on point. I LOVE BEING PUERTO RICAN.
Natalia.....Thank You. Very Nice..AND very Classy. I am Puerto Rican from NY with Cuban roots. I really enjoyed the Slang and really laugh to myself as I remembered some of the Slang words from Cuba and Puerto Rico which I used as a kid giving my relatives a Red face! My grandmother telling me...""Oye granuja....estas aqui y no aya! Cuidadito con la lengua!" Hahaha.
Spoken like a true Boricua!! I love it;) I would definitely like to see more Puerto Rico related topics on here I don't know of anyone else that is doing that and it's very important to keep our culture alive. I'm P. Rican born and raised in NYC but my parents as well as some of my siblings were born on the island and I myself lived there for a while during my childhood en el campo, soy jibara! LOL . Love your channel
I so wish I was born on the island too or at least raised on the island! Every time I meet a Boricua and they ask me what part I'm from, I just say "my mom is from here and my dad is from there". But I'm Boricua tho! 😑
oh my gosh, you are so incredibly beautiful and I am sooo happy I found your channel! I realized lately that it's really difficult for me to find any youtubers who are blatantly puerto rican that I can understand since idk a lot of spanish. Time to binge on your videos!
I really like this video. Because you give the correct and exact meaning to each word or puertorrican word. That means that you took the time to investigate the meaning of each words. I’m a puertorrican living here in Puerto Rico and proud to hear about you. My beautiful puertorrican!!!
I was born in New York...the Bronx...but like you my parents are from Puerto Rico and listening to your video it was music to my ears...I live in Tucson Arizona for the passed 10 yrs, before Tucson I used to live in California for 31yrs and I totally miss the puertorrican slang Thank you so much!!!
robie bag whats wrong with puerto ricans im puerto rican she puerto rican like tf back off theres puerto ricans people in these comments to es que tu si estas brutal
Puerto Rican here, born and raised in the Island 😉 very good video congratulations for explaining it so well!!! Only two things: "Brutal" means either something that is "super cool" or plain Brutal just like in English. 'Acho and 'Chacho, are both short for Muchacho(a) those are abbreviations forms. The difference is in how we use those in a sentence. When we say: 'Acho, it's more closely related to "Hey" in slang, or as in "Hey man, what's up" (' Acho man). On the other hand, 'Chacho(a), is used directly as short for "Muchacho(a)". Hope that helps 🙂🤗 thank you so much for making the video. We indeed need more videos, that are related to our Puerto Rican culture,comedy and more!
¡Boricua soy y siempre seré! ¡El Boricua nunca pierde su identidad y la mancha! Si lo dice con orgullo que eres Boricua de corazón eres un Boricua real 🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷
I know it's kind of late to comment on this, but in Catalan "nen" means niño and "nena" means niña, so maybe Catalan immigrants brought slang like that into Puerto Rican Spanish.
I really like this video. I too am Puerto Rican. I was born on the island, and moved to Buffalo, NY shortly after. Unfortunately, I 'lost' my Spanish growing up. This video is helping me get it back. Would love to see more. Thanks!
Thank you, Natalia! If you decide to do another of these videos, please include Spanish subtitles. I don't know how to use the new spanish words in conversation without knowing the before and after words.
I was born in PR but moved to the US when I was only 5. Spanish is my first language but once I moved to the states I had to learn English and because that's what I was surrounded by the most and because my parents had me speak to them in English so they could learn too, I lost a lot of the Spanish. I can still understand most of it and speak well enough, with some grammatical errors, but I definitely have an accent and sound like a gringa. I want to sound like where I'm actually from when speaking Spanish so I came here to learn and was pleasantly surprised that I know almost all of these from hearing my parents talk in general. This makes me so happy!
Lmao that was cute.. Reminds me of the other day when I was laughing with a Puerto Rican term/phrase someone told me.. "Me cago en na!" lmaoo it always makes me laugh it's so PR. We use Bombao, Bregar & Rebulu in DR too! 😇
@@davienierivas6692 is a phrase that it's used when things are not going the right way. My dad uses it when he tells us to do something and we do the opposite, so he would say, "pero me cago en na, tu no me escuchastes"..or when he forgot an essential item for a project.
Great video, my Puerto Rican family is from Hilo Hawaii. I'm sure we've all been told that story of why we ended up there. What's the song at the beginning.
Lived in Orlando my whole life & I swear it's like mini Puerto Rico over here 😂 "PuertoLando" Besides hearing it from family already, I also here those words everywhere I go in public, it's pretty unavoidable over here. Don't forget "Obligao" "Afuego" "Que es la qué hay" "Socio or Socia" 😂
It is nice that young people want to keep our sayings alive. Acho or chacho/chacha came from muchacho, muchacha, which is a young person. It is similar in meaning to mi'jo/ mi'ja instead of my son or my daughter but you can say that to anyone not related to you like when you say Yo in English.
Por favor que te continúe los videos y enseñarme en la lengua más. yo soy bori tambien de nueva york y residencia ahora en Norte Carolina. La idioma, hablándolo, nadie me ayudo lo aprender. Mi vocabulario esta muy basico. Me tengo mucho respeto para todos que ensensa nos la gente que no saber mucha. Gracias y bendiciones por alli en la lado de tuya nena. Me llamo Anthony.
I'm Guatemalan and my mom say revolu to describe messes or outta control situations lol . I just corrected my Puerto Rican husband with abombao cause he says boombao and he told he can do that cause Puerto Rican's cut letters sometimes 😂. Which is true !
Yaaas girl this video was on point!!! I'm half Puerto Rican half Guatemalan but I grew up more around the Puerto Rican side. Great video. I subbed =). I live in NY also!!
I never noticed that other Spanish cultures don't say this words - but you're right! And I totally remember when I first heard someone say ahorita to mean right now and I was like whaaat?? Hahaha xo
Hola Natalia, tengo varios amigos boricuas y disfrute mucho tu vídeo. En Chile usamos Brutal también, “que brutalidad mas grande”, pero no es muy común... La palabra Chevere es mayormente Venezolana, puedes ver su origen aqui: es.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chévere En Chile, y en la mayor parte de Sud America, no se usa “Ahorita”, si no “Ahora”, que es ahora mismo... Es interesante aprender las costumbres de otros paises, especialmente hablando el mismo idioma pero a veces con diferentes significados...
Aw I love this video . I'm or and learning Spanish and I like learning slang but when I look it up I can only find Colombian slang or dr slang. I was hype when I saw this !!! Lol I hope you make more
"ACHO or CHACHO" comes from MUCHACHO.....LIKE SAYING MUCHACHO QUE TE PASA or CHACHO que te pasa! todo lo demas esta CHEVERE!!!!! just correcting """chacho/acho"""
Thanks for this video! I’m studying to be a court interpreter and I need to learn different types of Spanish slang. I’ve heard most of these words but I didn’t know what many of them mean.
I love you! Not only are you drop dead gorgeous but you’re helping me connect with my homeland in a fun way. I’m so glad you mentioned chacho. I actually say it cause my father says it all the fucking time. I tried googling it but I couldn’t find nothing so I thought he made it up 😂 I’ve always wanted a channel like this. Thank you so much🙏🏽
BORICUAS ALL PODER 🇵🇷 hi I’m Puerto Rican born and raised here in the island i wanted to see the accuracy of this and it’s on Point! Loved it keep up the good work !!! 👍🏽
We say “algarete” also: eso está bien algarete ( that is really messed up; that is really crazy), or, ese/a tipo/a está bien algarete ( that guy/girl is really crazy). Great video! ☺️👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I also wanted to point out that we say “horita” not “ahorita”. But, the rest was perfect! 👌🏽

Should've mentioned 'bicho' for the one word, 2 meanings 😭😭😭😭
I was thinking the same thing lmaoo
Hahahaha.
Bicho,that has other meaning.
it means dick. "mama bicho" means "suck my blank"

Mi palabra favorita es Cafre para llamar a alguien "ghetto" lol pero pienso que Cafre es Puerto Rican slang porque mi amigos Mexicanos dicen "naco"
Brinea Lewis acho si, super cafre LOL
Si yo tambien creo que cafre solo lo usan los boricuas. Aqui en DR se dice Barrial.
Lisbeth Martinez Interesante 🤔
Lisbeth Martinez actually in PR the actual ghetto is called barriada, cafre o' cafretona is referring to a person acting ghetto.
Brinea Lewis cafre is legit one of my favorite Puerto Rican words. Brings me so much joy.

You sound like Dominican accent when you talk in Spanish

Albert Paulino yea i think she sounds more dominican than Puerto Rican.
I don't think so she sounds pure Nuyorican 100% Rican Taina look very pretty🌠☝💞
Natalia Garcia si cuando hablas español lento suena boricua pero cuando hablas el español rápido pareces dominicana
Puerto Ricans sound like that in Chicago and on the island fuck are u talking about
I found out over a year ago that my birth father is Puerto Rican. Went to the island in January and love it and the people!
Abombao is also used in Dominican Republic
Bregar tambien se usa
Yaaas girl this video was on point!!! I'm half Puerto Rican half Guatemalan but I grew up more around the Puerto Rican side. Great video. I subbed =). I live in NY also!!

Yo seria borincano aunque naciera en... New York
Love it, great job! Esto estuvo bien chevere.
I think "Ay Bendito" meant in a different way. 😂 love this! Nice to see more authentic boricua gurus.
Bianca Gonzalez ay bendito is kinda like awwww poor you.
I know that. I'm from Puerto Rico. I was speaking to the context of the song she was referring to.
NickyBenHer83 Bianca Gonzalez more like saying "Oh Lord"; "¡Ay Dios!" 😁😁
Hola Natalia, tengo varios amigos boricuas y disfrute mucho tu vídeo. En Chile usamos Brutal también, “que brutalidad mas grande”, pero no es muy común... La palabra Chevere es mayormente Venezolana, puedes ver su origen aqui: es.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chévere
En Chile, y en la mayor parte de Sud America, no se usa “Ahorita”, si no “Ahora”, que es ahora mismo... Es interesante aprender las costumbres de otros paises, especialmente hablando el mismo idioma pero a veces con diferentes significados...
You definitely should teach more puerto Rican Spanish. I grew up around a lot of puerto rican people and love their way of speaking Spanish.
Puerto Ricans aren't Spanish and Hispanic and Latino until given back to Spain and getting independence only from Spain your Americans now
Aw I love this video . I'm or and learning Spanish and I like learning slang but when I look it up I can only find Colombian slang or dr slang. I was hype when I saw this !!! Lol I hope you make more
Thank you honey!!!! :)
"ACHO or CHACHO" comes from MUCHACHO.....LIKE SAYING MUCHACHO QUE TE PASA or CHACHO que te pasa! todo lo demas esta CHEVERE!!!!! just correcting """chacho/acho"""
Thanks for this video! I’m studying to be a court interpreter and I need to learn different types of Spanish slang. I’ve heard most of these words but I didn’t know what many of them mean.
Guess who got a new subscriber for being Puerto Rican like me 😂🇵🇷 boricua morena!!!🇵🇷🇵🇷
voy a san juan por mi primera vez en noviembre!! gracias por este video
I am puertorican born y criada SORRY IAM WRITING SPANGLISH
I love you! Not only are you drop dead gorgeous but you’re helping me connect with my homeland in a fun way.
I’m so glad you mentioned chacho.
I actually say it cause my father says it all the fucking time. I tried googling it but I couldn’t find nothing so I thought he made it up 😂
I’ve always wanted a channel like this. Thank you so much🙏🏽
Dominicans say chacho and abombao....wait....Dominicans and Cubans say a lot of these things....like if not all of them
Gemini Bello dominicans don't say chacho
And they definitely don't use abombao
Melissa Segura I'm Dominican & we do say abombao.
Just let her have her cute video
Melissa Segura we use abombao too
I love it.. I love knowing. things about my Puerto Rican roots.
we don't say ahorita (right now) ever... just horita (later)..
Wireliz Soto Ya ella explico eso... Eoe
BORICUAS ALL PODER 🇵🇷 hi I’m Puerto Rican born and raised here in the island i wanted to see the accuracy of this and it’s on Point! Loved it keep up the good work !!! 👍🏽
We say “algarete” also: eso está bien algarete ( that is really messed up; that is really crazy), or, ese/a tipo/a está bien algarete ( that guy/girl is really crazy). Great video! ☺️👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I also wanted to point out that we say “horita” not “ahorita”. But, the rest was perfect! 👌🏽
