Hola a todos! Soy tica, tica means a Costa Rican woman. We have many slang words like : mae, pura vida, diay, tuanis, etc that only we understand. Every country has words like that so, probably even tough you can understand Spanish, you will not understand some of our phrases. That's why I liked the exchange community, we were learning more than English, we were learning about culture and traveling with our imagination. Pity...
