Dupe
/Sounds like "DOO" (as in "due") + "peh" (as in "pet")/
A cheap product that closely imitates an expensive brand-name one, sought out and shared as a find on social media. From English "duplicate," now a standard term across Spanish-speaking internet culture.
“I found the perfect dupe for that super expensive lipstick.”
“All of TikTok is hunting for luxury brand dupes.”

Puñeta
A high-voltage Puerto Rican exclamation for frustration, anger, surprise, celebration, or any intense emotion. Boricuas shout it when their team loses, when they stub a toe, or when news leaves them speechless. It is a mild curse so integrated into daily speech that many use it without thinking.
