To make internet content spread massively across social media until millions of people see it. When something goes viral, it takes on a life of its own and there's no stopping it.

That sudden, inexplicable feeling of repulsion toward someone you used to find attractive. One tiny, often ridiculous detail shatters all the attraction at once, and you simply cannot look at that person the same way ever again.

A small glass of draft beer served at bars and terraces all across Spain. Ordering a caña is probably the most basic and sacred social act in Spanish life, the after work ritual that brings everyone together. "Ir de cañas" means going bar hopping for beers with friends or coworkers.

A cowardly person in Spain who backs down at the first problem or is afraid of everything. The cagueta always has an excuse to avoid taking risks.

An image or illustration you send on WhatsApp or Telegram to express emotions, reactions, or inside jokes. Stickers have replaced words in modern messaging, sometimes one image says it all.

A bar, club, or late-night spot, usually rough around the edges but with good atmosphere. In Spain, a garito is where you go when you don't want fancy; it's the kind of place with cheap drinks, sticky floors, and great stories.

You only live once, just go for it without worrying about the consequences. An acronym borrowed from English that has become the ultimate excuse for any impulsive decision across Latin America and Spain, from eating a double dessert to quitting your job on a Monday morning.

Short for "mutuals": people who follow you and you follow back on social media. Your moots are your actual online circle, the people you actually talk to and interact with regularly on platforms like Twitter or TikTok.

In Spain, to deliberately act clueless and pretend you have no idea what is going on, in order to dodge responsibility or an uncomfortable situation. Similar to playing dumb, but with the added layer of actively performing the ignorance while everyone around you can tell you know perfectly well.

To keep flip-flopping and never commit to a decision. Someone who "da volteretas" changes their mind constantly, says one thing today and the opposite tomorrow, and leaves everyone around them frustrated and unable to make plans.

To completely relax, disconnect from all worries, and simply flow with the moment. The Gen Z version of chilling out, existing without agenda, fully in the present.

To die repeatedly in a game and give the opposing team an advantage. The feeder is their team's nightmare because they're basically serving kills to the enemy on a silver platter.

Suffering from withdrawal symptoms, especially from drugs, but also from anything that is deeply missed. The withdrawal symptoms are painful and can be overwhelming, affecting daily life and mood.

In Spain, someone who is arrogant and full of themselves, strutting around with an inflated ego nobody asked for. The word can also flip to a compliment meaning cool or stylish depending on tone, but when said with a raised eyebrow it means someone who thinks way too highly of themselves.

A classic cocktail of rum and Coca-Cola with a squeeze of lime, named after Cuban independence. It's probably the most ordered drink at any Latin bar for its simplicity and perfect flavor.

A sweet bread roll in Spain eaten at any time of day. In Colombia and Panama, a bollo is a corn dough wrapped in leaves eaten as a side dish, something completely different.

A Latin urban music genre born in Puerto Rico that dominated the entire planet with its impossible-to-ignore beat. Reggaetón is the sound that plays at every party, every car, and every phone in the Spanish-speaking world.

A screenshot in Spain and Argentina, the irrefutable digital proof of what someone wrote, posted, or said. That lethal weapon used in fights and gossip to leave absolutely no room for doubt.

A hangover, the miserable morning after drinking too much alcohol. In Chile and Spain, "tener caña" means you're suffering from headaches, nausea, and deep regret, that awful feeling that makes you swear you'll never drink again, until next weekend.

In Spain, having an incredibly good time, enjoying a situation or event to the fullest. Someone who's having a great time doesn't want it to end.

To subscribe to someone's social media profile in order to view their content. The basic gesture of digital approval.

Obsessively overthinking something unnecessarily, overanalyzing until you're stressed for no reason without reaching any conclusion. It's the Latin overthinking that keeps you awake at 3 AM thinking about what you said five years ago.

A troublemaker, especially a kid who cannot sit still, creates disorder, and stirs up conflict wherever they go. Used in Spain, Dominican Republic, and Puerto Rico for someone who simply cannot be contained in any setting.

A stupid, idiotic person with no common sense who does absurd things. It's a direct insult widely used in Argentina, Uruguay, and Chile to call out foolishness.

To make a mistake or mess up, especially by saying something inappropriate at the worst possible moment. When you screw up unintentionally, everyone notices, and there's no way to unsay what you said.

To keep hovering around someone on social media after they ghosted you, with zero dignity. Watching their stories, liking old photos, but never actually talking to them directly.

A person who's always in a bad mood, negative, and doesn't enjoy absolutely anything in life. They're the one who ruins everyone's plans with their pessimistic attitude and ability to drain the group's energy.

An informal relationship with no commitment or clear label in Spain, something floating between friends with benefits and actually dating. Nobody involved knows exactly what they are or where it's going, and they like it that way.

To be joking around, messing about, or not being serious at all. Asking someone if they're 'de cona' is the Spanish way of saying 'are you pulling my leg?' or 'are you for real right now?'.

To throw something or get rid of something that's no longer useful. In this sense it's about launching objects through the air or tossing things in the trash.
