      ​@@khirywilliams7934ok ngl, most Puerto Ricans say "Wepa" but I personally, as a Puerto Rican, just say it the way y'all Americans say it "ayeee, what's up?"

    Never heard Jangueo and ea. I know the other words. I also don't know what Wepa means and I've never heard someone use. Don't know if its Puerto Rican slang or something people in all the Caribbean say, but I get a little weirded out when people call me Papi. 🤣
    Growing up in the states I would only hear my parents and some of my older relatives call me that so from then on I thought of it as just something older people say to young people as a term of endearment and whenever I heard someone saying it on TV shows and movies in the US, its used sexually. And at 18 before I started getting into learning more about Puerto Rico and going back to the island and hearing random people even guys my age calling me Papi, I would get freaked out and a little embarrassed. Didn't know that its like saying "What's up dude" down there, I thought they were hitting on me or they were calling me like "Sweetheart" or "Cutie" when I'm a grown man. I know now, but it still feels weird hearing it sometimes.🤣

      "Jangueo." We use it all the time because, well, we Puerto Ricans are the MASTERS at converting an English word into Spanish.
      "Ea" is basically "whoa!!!"
