Ever wondered from where some Dominicans learn to say the things they say?. For instance, some say: Vivaporu instead of Vick's Vapor Rub. Tubei instead of Two Base. Jonron instead of Home Run. Fortimal instead of Forty Malt I know, I know, they say it the way it sounds......... I am just making a joke. Anybody else with some funny words?. Edited on 2/5/2010 8:24 PM by TuPapaupa. I am "An Army Of One"  Come Get Some!!. |

"I'll be there in 10 minutes" and then end up getting there 3 hours later, if they get there at all!. Also: cachu instead of ketchup. Anybody with more?. I am "An Army Of One" Come Get Some!!. |
