Greetings to all our friends and family in Colombia!
Today, let’s celebrate the linguistic diversity where say Hello! or Hi! In Colombia is expressed in unique and colorful ways.
These greetings roughly translate to “What’s up?” or “What’s going on?” They are commonly used among friends.
In the diverse culture of Colombian expressions and accents, you’llhear say Hi or Hello as “Parce,” “¿Qué hubo?,” “¿Qué tal, hermano?,” “¿Qué más?,” “Mija,” “Ave María,” “querida,” and “aja.” And let’s not forget the interesting and affectionate expressions like “Hola flaquita” or “Hola gorda,” translating to “Hi skinny” or “Hi chubby” respectively. But fear not, these expressions are not about your actual body size; they’re playful and affectionate ways to say “Hi” or ” Hello” that transcend literal meanings. After all, who doesn’t appreciate a good laugh in the name of amigos? ¡Saludos! 😄
