To want two people to be together romantically, or to root for a pairing. Borrowed from 'relationship,' shipping is an internet-born cultural act of projecting romantic connection onto real or fictional people.

To post a story on Instagram or WhatsApp — that 24-hour window into your life that disappears before anyone important sees it. Storear is the Spanglish verb the whole Spanish-speaking world adopted because 'subir una historia' was too many syllables for something people do 10 times a day.

Someone using fake photos and a false identity online to deceive others — usually in romantic contexts. The catfish creates an elaborate fake persona, builds emotional connections, and eventually gets exposed in a moment of brutal internet reality. It happens everywhere but feels personal every single time.

To share or repost someone else's content on your own social media — the digital version of word of mouth. Repostear is how content spreads like wildfire across Spanish-speaking social media: one share leads to another and suddenly everyone's talking about it.
