Oh blimey. Do we need a Colombian swear filter ffs???

Hope not, its funsies, and culturally a good thing to learn a language.

Most on here struggle with Your/You're, lets face it.

Can always change to a different variant.
No, eso sería muy coño

Where are you from? ¿De que ciudad?

I was actually born in Bogota, but was raised in Ibagué. James was actually raised in the same city and it was there where his spent his childhood playing soccer. His grandma and lots of his family still live there. I now live in the US in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina.

Just checking that you are aware that there are, typical of the English language, more than one meaning of the word "mate". It isn't just a noun lol

Lol, I'm aware of the verb as well. I mate with my husband quite often

Para nada paisana, sólo en mis sueños. Nacida en Bogotâ, críada en Ibagué, pero viviendo en Estados Unidos desde que tengo 17

Qué chévere eso, algo que me cae mal de las otras regiones es que dicen las rolas son frías. Totalmente falso!

Ohhh new word for me

 

[Sassy Colombian]

Ohhh new word for me

Using my slang on a fellow Colombian lol It means "lies"

 

[ozerton]

My favourite expression in Colombia is "Me estás mamando gallo" which translates to "Are you kidding me?" But the literal translation is ... "Are you sucking my ....?"

Sounds nice. Don't know Ibague, don't really know any part of Colombia but I know people from Cali, Pereira and Santa Marta.

No conozco ningun Rolo

If you want to make a Colombian you know laugh say this they'll lose it

For anyone curious gallo means rooster or other synonym alike.

You seem to know plenty of Colombians. To be honest Ibagué is not a very captivating city like a place like Santa Marta, Medellín or Bogotá but it is where a lot of my family still lives so it will always be home.

Forza Colombia.

Or sommet.

Love you all.
