/Sounds like "pah" (as in "park") + "LAHN" (as in "lava") + "teh" (as in "ten")/
Forward, keep going, push through no matter what. In Puerto Rico and Cuba, 'palante' is more than a direction, it's a survival philosophy. You face setbacks and you go palante. You lose something and you go palante. The word carries the weight of resilience built through adversity.
“No matter what happens, you keep moving forward.”
“My grandmother always said: palante, never look back.”
