In this episode, I’m joined by two special guests from our Language Coaching team at Spanish con Salsa—Kelly Delgado from Cuba 🇨🇺 and Maribel from Colombia 🇨🇴.

We're sharing 8 unique Cuban Spanish phrases that you’ll definitely want to add to your vocabulary!

But here’s the twist...

Maribel and I have to guess the meanings of these phrases before Kelly reveals what they really mean. 🤔

Can you guess along with us? Let’s see how many you get right!😅

✨ What You'll Learn in This Episode:

• How to say liar in Cuban Spanish 🧐
• The real meaning behind the Cuban phrase "hazme la pala" (Nope, it’s not about digging 🛠️)
• Why "comerse un boniato" has nothing to do with eating sweet potatoes 🍠
• And how Cubans love to throw in fruit metaphors when they talk 🍉🍊 (seriously!)

This episode is 100% in Spanish, so it's a great way to practice your listening skills. Don't worry, though—if you’re a show supporter or a Spanish Fluency Club member, you can download the full transcript to follow along. ✍️📄
