Yuma
/Sounds like "YOO" (as in "you") + "mah" (as in "mark")/
In Cuba, "la yuma" means the United States or abroad, and going there represents the dream of emigrating to build a better life. A deeply loaded phrase tied to Cuban migration.
“The whole family left for the States.”
“She is saving up to go to the US next year.”
