Never heard Jangueo and ea. I know the other words. I also don't know what Wepa means and I've never heard someone use. Don't know if its Puerto Rican slang or something people in all the Caribbean say, but I get a little weirded out when people call me Papi. 🤣 Growing up in the states I would only hear my parents and some of my older relatives call me that so from then on I thought of it as just something older people say to young people as a term of endearment and whenever I heard someone saying it on TV shows and movies in the US, its used sexually. And at 18 before I started getting into learning more about Puerto Rico and going back to the island and hearing random people even guys my age calling me Papi, I would get freaked out and a little embarrassed. Didn't know that its like saying "What's up dude" down there, I thought they were hitting on me or they were calling me like "Sweetheart" or "Cutie" when I'm a grown man. I know now, but it still feels weird hearing it sometimes.🤣

Lol, i was just imagining that situation in my head, and it looked so awkward! 😂 God bless you’re soul!

[@maraviyoso8473]

"Jangueo." We use it all the time because, well, we Puerto Ricans are the MASTERS at converting an English word into Spanish. "Ea" is basically "whoa!!!"

[@Aer0xander]

Ok still don’t know the meaning of wepa, but I get the vibe haha

[@dougkalagian]

Hahah same 😁

Yeah it’s taught in schools, but for these videos we particularly asked for people who were comfortable speaking English

[@dennis771]

@@dougkalagian interesting. Its astonishing they aren’t pride to be american and think a person leaving from the mainland to visit PR is like visiting China. Very interesting in their thoughts

[@pinkyrose6307]

Really? Is a school subject. Everyone knows it

[@evaarroyo100]

PR has been a USA territory for over a 100 years. You are the product of the failed USA educational system.

[@evaarroyo100]

@@dennis771 What ever gave you that idea?? From Puerto Rico going to the mainland US it's like any other citizen visiting another state. Where are you from? You seem not to know much about the world around you or geography or history.
