A group of friends, the people you hang out with and always have a good time with. In Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic, the corillo is your trusted social circle — the ones who are with you through good times and bad.

Cool, awesome, something positive that you enjoy and makes you feel good. It's perhaps the most widely exported word from Caribbean and Andean Spanish — a universal synonym for everything being perfect.

To dance bachata — that romantic, sensual Dominican rhythm that pulls you close to your dance partner. Bachatear is the best couples therapy and the perfect excuse to get close to someone you like.

Angry, in a bad mood, or with an aggressive attitude in the Caribbean. Careful though — in Spain and Mexico guapo means attractive, so Spanish gets confusing depending on where you say it.
