It is always worth explaining. This twit is about Everton creating a dictionary with the new Colombian words that they have learned from James Rodríguez and Yerrry Mina. A lot of these are very much Colombian slang and if you hear a person saying it, it is because they are either Colombian, or are familiar with our culture because these words are very Colombian.

@UptheTofees did a good job with the translations

She is very Cache

I think they'll be mainly 'following' from afar. I very much doubt that many will be rocking up at Goodison.

#kev I'm afraid to tell you that Colombian fans are very devoted and I can predict many travelling to Liverpool to watch James once this damn pandemic is over, or at least under control.

 

[maccavennie]

I think I've pretty much got this language sorted now. All those wasted years learning German when I could have been having intellectual conversations with my Colombian friends

A quick translation and I believe you have said my understanding of the Colombian language is perfect and that there is a fair chance James Rodriguez would like me to be his best friend.

I thank you for your kind words!
