In six days, the video has accumulated over 190 thousand views.


Two Colombians have made thousands laugh on TikTok by sharing how their Cuban boyfriends have completely transformed the way they speak and see the world. The video, which already has more than 20K likes and over a thousand comments, has gone viral on social media, especially among the Cuban and Colombian communities.

In the clip, the girls say phrases like: "I'm dating a Cuban and now I say ‘ño’ for everything" or "We no longer eat maíz pira, now it's popcorn." One jokes that they no longer call it "ground beef," but "picadillo," and that instead of calling her husband "parce," she now calls him "asere." Amid laughter, they end up saying that, thanks to their partners, they now speak "three languages: Spanish, English, and Cuban."

The comments came quickly. Many users, both Cuban and Colombian, felt identified and shared their own anecdotes. "I’m a Mexican dating a Cuban hahaha and now it’s like, throw him out, flipped," commented one user; "It’s no longer sancocho, now it’s caldosa," wrote another. Some even took the opportunity to joke about the issue of paperwork: "Let’s go for those papers hahaha," said someone amid laughter.

Other comments mentioned how sticky "cubañol" is. One user confessed, "I am Cuban and my husband is Peruvian, but he speaks like a Cuban now," while another joked, "I already took the Cuban course without barriers, I know them all."

In the end, amidst so many laughs and confessions, it became clear that the blend between Colombians and Cubans is livelier than ever on TikTok. As one follower of the video said: “They are Cubans now too.”
