yesss I'm glad I found someone else who is Puerto Rican

Ay bendito or "dito" ❤️❤️🇵🇷🇵🇷

Should've mentioned 'bicho' for the one word, 2 meanings 😭😭😭😭

Puerto Rican's r the Perfect 👌🏾 mix PUÑETA

Yes girl! Wish I was born on the island too pero lo tengo en mi sangre! Lol you got a new subscriber! 🇵🇷💯

I'm full Puerto Rican too. I wish I was born in the island. I know very little Spanish

Here are some words i use. Corillo, bregar, dame un break, guillao, and gata 😉 I'm boricua born here in NJ.

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!

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 🇵🇷

yo soy afro latina por que mi madre es boriqua y mi padre es Jamaican. Tu eres muy bonita. new subscriber😍😍😍

I was born in PR and still live here!! Soy boricua PUÑETA

Im Puerto Rican, born and raised in the island, moved to US in my 25’s and no one can understand my spanish were I am at 😂

THIS VIDEO IS EVERYTHING 👏🏽😩

i have seen so many videos about Dominican slang and it's so close to what we Puerto Rican's say but so glad i finally saw a video about us 🇵🇷🇵🇷🙌🏼

🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷 boricuas para siempre

Us boricuas are perfection 🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷❤

BORICUA 😍😍❤😍😍

Me encanta este acento 😍 soy mexicana y si quiero aprender más de PR

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! 😑

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;)

They say "chévere" in all of the Caribbean, Venezuela, and in Yucatán, México, In Yucatán, they also refer to a baby as "nene" whether male or female. They also pronounce "nene" on the last part of the word. For example, ne-NE.

I always thought we used Chacho as short for muchacho.

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!

Amazingly awesome video!✊ so much more pride in my culture🇵🇷 you did an outstanding job gorgeous😉❤

yasss boricua pride! 👌👌

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.

I found this video by accident, and I'm so happy I did. You are my spirit animal girl! And this video is everything! Wepaaaaaaaa

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.....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.

We have a similar term in Brazil for Revolu! It's Rebuliço and it means the same thing 😊😊

Love the eyebrow highlight 😍 and thank you for this video I am learning Spanish and I’m in love with the Puerto Rican accent

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 Dominican and we say most of the world that boricuas say it ... 😊

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! ❤️

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.

Wow...you just refreshed a bunch of words that I used to know as a kid but got "Americanized" and forgot all about them! Thanks :)

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" 😂

Thank you for this video! I been telling the Mexican clients at my job if they want someone speaks better Spanish to call them back ahorrita I meant later when I get an actual translator I didn't know they thought I meant right away explains a lot! Lol

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 just love your videos!! I'm learning Spanish and you're helping so much!

soy mexicana pero i love the Puerto Rican culture 😭❤️🥺 !

Salute 💯✊🏽 !!! Keep Representing Our culture ,& Beautiful Women ...🔥

I was born on the island and raised in California. Have traveled back and forth most of my life. Thank you for the lovely video.

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!!!

Don't let my profile pic fool you. I'm a Cubarican 🇨🇺/🇵🇷 I'm also an Elvis Fan and I just came across your videos. Love them!!!

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

Watching your videos to get ready for my PR trip in a few weeks! 💗

This is a great video. I definitely learned some new words. Thanks for your help👑

Orita means later, ahorita is actually now, at least in the part of PR that I live in, pero ahorita no se dice mucho, dicen ahora y ya

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

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!

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🙏🏽

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! 😇

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!

San Juan was already on the top of my traveling list!! Quiero mucho viajar allí !! Chévere y muchas gracias!

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'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 !

im soo happy i found your channel, wepa! I dont speak much spanish tho but im learning .

Thank you for this! I am Puerto Rican (born in WI, raised in NY), my mom never really taught us much Spanish as we lived in an area where people looked down on you for it as we grew up

I loved this video... I love watching videos about my country!!

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.

BORICUA!!! QUE BELLA!

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!

Loved the video! I’m Puerto Rican, pero my Spanish sucks. So I’m trying to find ways to really learn my language correctly and fluently. So thanks for this 👌🏽

I pray everything is well with you and your family after the Horrible Hurricanes Irma & Maria. but our beautiful Island. 😢🇵🇷

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.

I can understand most accents except those from the Caribbean. Those are the hardest for me, but yours is crisp and clear to me.

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

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

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"

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 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!

I think "Ay Bendito" meant in a different way. 😂 love this! Nice to see more authentic boricua gurus.

BORIQUAS LETS REPRESENT!!!!

Gracias por ofrecer este vídeo para diferenciarnos de otros países en Latinoamérica gracias por fin llego una boricua aponer el sazón

Love it, great job! Esto estuvo bien chevere.

Guess who got a new subscriber for being Puerto Rican like me 😂🇵🇷 boricua morena!!!🇵🇷🇵🇷

I'm born and raise in the island ❤️

Useful tips..thank you sooo much! I’m half Puerto Rican and Filipino so my parents didn’t speak each other’s language so English only..born n raised in Cali but many fam in NY and some in PR still..Love visiting both places..Please do some more videos on Puerto Rican words..thank you again!✌️

The authenticity is A1 i say all these words and im in Puerto Rico in my grandmas house

Yo soy boricua, pa'que tu lo sepa!!!!!

Mixed Boricua, love the PR slang translation...I’ve heard a lot of these terms growing up! ❤️ 🇵🇷

My manager is boricua and i used all this slang words, thanks to you i got the job

I literally typed in “boricua” and this was the first video to come up lol. Had fun learning lol, subbed

I am puertorican born y criada SORRY IAM WRITING SPANGLISH

Yo seria borincano aunque naciera en... New York

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 !!! 👍🏽

Thank you for taking the time to educate us. It was chevere!

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! 👌🏽

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.

My boyfriend is Puerto Rican so this kinda helps me understand his mom's side of the family and when his dad comes to Illinois for his graduation this next week

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.

"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"""

Do you have Dominican accents, im just saying...lol

Great video ! Loved it ! 🇵🇷

Thank you I appreciate this I am learning Spanish on Duolingo and live in Puerto Rico part-time and it's very frustrating not knowing how to talk like them.❤

we don't say ahorita (right now) ever... just horita (later)..

Also Dominicans say abombao. We use it like "ESE PEO ESTA ABOMBAO". And Dominican say bregar also. We have a lot of similar words . :)

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

This was such a fun video!
