Venezuelan Tiktoker: "Cubans have 45 ways to say hello, how are you."

"What bolá is a hello, how are you, all good, how's it going, but with flow," explains the young man.


The Venezuelan TikToker based in the Canary Islands, Richard Alexander, has become knowledgeable about the phrases used in Cuban popular slang, to the point that he already knows the meaning of many.

According to Richard, Cubans have not just one, but many ways to say "hello, how are you," and in his opinion, "Cuban greetings" can be very diverse.

"Cubans have 45 ways to say hello, how are you (...) The most typical among Cubans is 'que bolá asere' (...) Qué bolá is a hello, how are you, all good, how's it going, but with flow," explains the Venezuelan.

"Those Cubans with style can also come and tell you 'tell me, my tank,'" assures the tiktoker.

In one of the greetings, he asked for help because he wasn't quite sure how to pronounce it, "qué vuelta cobio," but his Cuban followers clarified that the correct word is "ecobio," and it is a term that among the abacuá means brother.

In the comments on the video, other Cuban greetings that were missing appeared: “what's up, champ”; “what's the vibe, mine”; “talk to me, mine”; “how's the movement”; “how's everything”, among others.

What do you think?
