Dominican Slang Words

To clearly understand Dominican slang you have to know some things about the way they talk. They normally talk very fast and can be loud sometimes. They also might seem a bit aggressive according to their gestures, however, they are actually pretty nice people. That is the way they communicate. Generally Dominicans mostly care about how a word is written and not how it is pronounced. One good example of this is the word “cocinar” which means to cook. A Dominican would pronounce it “cocinal” substituting the r for L. They could also pronounce it “cocinai” by changing the r for the I. As you can see changing the r in a word for an i or an L is quite common in the Dominican Republic.
