The Puerto Rican Dialect: An essential guide to sounding like a Boricua By Besanya Santiago Ayala — JP Linguistics

by Besanya Santiago

Ahhh, Puerto Rico. La Isla del Encanto. The quintessential getaway for any person seeking an enchanting paradise to escape from their day-to-day routine. An island where, even when it’s raining, the sun still radiates through the smiles of its local people. The warmth is palpable in the way the island embraces you the moment you set foot onto it. In every woman, you will find your abuela, your mami, your hermana and titi. And as a Spanish learner, this is the perfect place to arrive, listen to the local language and say to yourself: WHAT THE HELL DID SHE JUST SAY?

Yeeeaaa, I know. Latinos usually agree that the Spanish from Puerto Rico is one of the most challenging dialects to understand. Some time ago, I met a woman from Argentina who said to me: “When Puerto Ricans speak Spanish, they sound like they’re rapping a Reggaeton song during the entire conversation. ” She’s not wrong. We speak insanely fast and use slang in every other sentence. Additionally, there are certain words that are more or less the same in other countries but drastically different in Puerto Rico.

Puerto Rico was originally named Borikén, a Taíno word translated as “land of the brave people.” The Taínos are an indigenous people who have lived on the island since prior to Spain’s colonization. When Christopher Columbus arrived in 1493, it was renamed to Puerto Rico, meaning “rich port”. This was due to its abundance of natural resources in addition to having generous amounts of gold nuggets in its rivers. Today, Puerto Ricans refer to themselves as Boricuas in order to illustrate recognition of their Taíno heritage. The dialect is a mix of the Taíno, Spanish and English language with African pronunciations, making it truly distinctive. Locals will be tremendously impressed if you manage to include some Puerto Rican slang into your Spanish. Lets explore this dialect further and get you sounding like a true Boricua.

Nuestro acento

It’s important to mention that accents always vary by region. These language tendencies will not apply to everyone. Some may not use any of them. However, these are the most recognizable characteristics of the Puerto Rican dialect. I just wanted to make that clear to avoid getting bulldozed by a fellow compatriot: “OYE PERO YO NO HABLO ASI!!!!! “

Love you, mi gente. Vamos allá.

Nuestro Dialecto

Slang words are used quite often in Puerto Rico. Try to incorporate some of these fun expressions into your everyday Spanish to truly immerse yourself in the dialect.

“Ay Bendito!”
You cannot leave Puerto Rico without hearing this one. It’s used to express pity, shock, anger and sometimes even sarcasm. Similar to the expression “oh my gosh.”

Example: Ay bendito, pero que te pasó? / Oh my goodness, what happened to you?

“Janguear”
One of the most well-known examples of Spanglish meaning “to hang out. ”

Example: Vamos a janguear esta noche? / Are we hanging out tonight?

“Wepa”
This is as Boricua as it gets. You don’t say it. You yell it. It demonstrates pride and joy, particularly in situations where people are feeling patriotic. Which for us is ALL. THE. TIME.

Example: Ricky renunció!!! Weeeeeeeeepaaaaaaaaa!!!!!! / Ricky (Rosselló) quit! YAAAASSSSSS!!!!

“Revolú”
Used to describe loud commotions and disorder. An absolute racket.

Example: Oístes el revolú que hubo anoche? / Did you hear that racket last night?

“Brutal”
A compliment used to describe something that is beyond incredible. It has the same strength as the word “brutal” in English but for something good. And there’s a lot of intensity behind it when spoken.

Example: Nena, el pelo te quedó brutal! / Girl, your hair turned out incredible!

“Pichear”
To forget or ignore something in the maximum way possible. “Ghosting” is probably the most accurate description.

Example: Antes tu me pichabas, ahora yo picheo…. #badbunnyforever / Before you ignored me, now I ignore you…

“Al garete”
Something that is disorganized, out of control or a complete mess. In a more literal sense, it means “without a given path.”

Example: No pongas las manzanas así al garete. / Don’t place the apples like that, all disorganized.

“Bochiche”
Gossip. A person who gossips constantly is called a Bochinchero(a).

Example: Esa madre tuya es una bochinchera. / Your mother is such a gossip.

“Fó”
There is no translation for this. It’s what you say when you smell something awful or see someone doing something gross. Usually preceded by an ay.

Example: Ay, fó! Limpiáte esos pies que apestan! / Ew! Clean your feet, they stink!

“Corillo”
A large group of people or friends. Simply put: your people.

Example: Dile al corillo que vamos pa’ la playa! / Tell the crew we’re going to the beach!

“Pana”
A very close friend. Someone who is a partner-in-crime and you trust completely. Not to be confused with the delicious breadfruit in Puerto Rico also called Pana (even though I would trust that Pana with my life, too.)

Example: Manuel, mi pana, como estamos? / Manuel, my friend, how we doing?

“Perreo / Perrear”

The Boricua way to dance and party. And party hard. And usually to Reggaeton music.

Example: Prepárate que esta noche nos vamos de perreo! / Get ready, tonight we’re gonna party it up!

Now it’s your turn!

Try them out! And don’t worry if you can’t make it all the way to Puerto Rico. We are everywhere and are especially known for being warm, social beings. So, grab your corillo and head to the nearest discoteca for a long night of perreo. Order some piña coladas and engage is some real life Puerto Rican bochinche. By the end of the night, you’re sure to be officially recognized as a Boricua de corazón. WEPA!

How is Puerto Rican Spanish Different (& How to Learn)

Have you ever wanted to learn Puerto Rican Spanish? Puerto Rican Spanish has a very distinct ring to it. Native Puerto Rican speakers are known for speaking incredibly fast, using colorful vocabulary, and eluding or changing specific consonant sounds that give this dialect a very distinct feel and it’s easiness to spot.

What makes Puerto Rican Spanish so different?

What language is spoken in Puerto Rico? In every country where Spanish is spoken, dialects have their own characteristics and particularities. Some of us speak it faster than others. Some curse more than others, and some are easier for Spanish learners to understand (i.e. Colombian Spanish). Native Spanish speakers around the world would agree that the Spanish from Puerto Rico is one of the most difficult dialects to understand. And I don’t mean just for Spanish learners, but for natives too!

If you are learning Spanish and have the very specific goal of learning Puerto Rican Spanish, you have come to the right place! In this post, we will talk about what makes Puerto Rican Spanish different from other Spanish dialects and what you can do to learn it. We will go over what makes the accent so different and what words you can add to your vocabulary to sound like an authentic puertoriqueño!

Vamoh pa’ allá!

El acento puertoriqueño (The Puerto Rico Pronounciation accent):

Before we go into specific words used by Puerto Ricans, we need to start by going over the accent which is what truly sets this dialect apart from others. The dialect is a combination of the Taíno (Indigenous caribbeans) and Spanish sounds with African pronunciations. And you will be surprised to know that some aspects of the Spanish from Puerto Rico might be easier for you to pronounce than in standard Spanish. For example: Do you find it difficult to roll your Rs? Keep reading!

The “R” sound: You will find that in P.R. the R is often pronounced as an L. Be careful though. This pronunciation will depend on the position of this consonant in the word. An R at the beginning of a word will always be pronounced as R (not doing so, could change the meaning of a word or make it incomprehensible). The same goes for the double RR sound which is also pronounced as a strong R sound and not L.

So when does the R change to L? When the R sound is in the middle of a word and before a consonant sound.

Puerto Rico, for example, becomes PueLto Rico.

Suerte (Luck) becomes sueLte.

Verde (Green) becomes veLde.

And so on.

The “D” sound: This consonant sound is commonly eluded in word endings, as in, final syllables that start with the letter D.

For example, many adjectives in Spanish end in -ado, -ido such as enamorado (in love), dormido (asleep), encantado (enchanted), acelerado (accelerated). In this case, most Puerto Ricans will elude the D sound completely and instead say: enamorao’, doLmio’ (remember to turn that middle R into an L), encantao’, acelerao’ respectively.

The “S” sound: Puerto Ricans will either completely ignore the S sound or turn it into H sound (something that can be found in other caribbean accents such as Venezuelan Spanish). This change also applies for the Z sound. This phenomenon will occur when the S is in the middle of a word or at the end. So you will hear words like:

Los niños (the kids) pronounced as LoH niñoH or LoH niño.

(the lather completely drops the S at the end of “niños”)

Oíste? (Did you listen/hear?) becomes oíHte?

The S sound at the beginning of a word, however, is NEVER dropped so a word like “serio” (serious) the pronunciation is ‘Serio’.

Word endings: Lastly, in Puerto Rican Spanish, the last syllables tend to be chopped off. The preposition word para is often said as just pa, as in: Vamos pa’ allá instead of Vamos para allá (Let’s go there). Another word often cut is nada (nothing) in a sentence like: No tengo nada (I have nothing) you will hear No tengo na’. This is commonly done with high frequency words as it is easier to understand what the chopped word means, so don’t do it with just any word!

El hablao’ puertoriqueño (The Puerto Rican slang):

Now, let’s take a look at some words you can incorporate to your repertoire if you want to start sounding like a true puertoriqueño.

One interesting aspect about Spanish from Puerto Rico is that quite a few words that are more or less the same across other Spanish speaking countries are significantly different in Puerto Rico. Take for example the word ‘banana’. In most countries this word is essentially the same, but in Puerto Rico ‘banana’ is guineo. (Tricky, right?)

Here are some other words and popular phrases that you will often hear on the island:

Pana: Puerto Rico shares this word with Venezuela. Pana means a very close friend. It is used quite often and even though it ends in “a”, pana is used for both men and women. Example: Ellos son mis panas (They’re my friends)

Wepa: This is an expression you can use to express excitement. It’s similar to saying yasss in English. For example: A:“Me voy a casar” (I’m getting married!) B: Weeepa!

Revolú: This word is used to describe a confusing, difficult situation. Similar to racket. Example: ¿Oíste el revolú que hubo anoche? (Did you hear that racket last night?)

Brutal: This is an interesting use of this word. In other countries, brutal usually means cruel or inhumane. However, in Puerto Rico it can be used as a compliment to describe something that is beyond incredible.

Example: ¡Te quedó brutal tu nuevo corte de pelo! (Your new haircut looks incredible!)

Pichear: To forget or ignore someone or something completely. For example: Ese hombre me está tratando de hablar y lo estoy pichando (That man has been trying to talk to me but I’m ignoring him).

¡Ay Bendito!: An expression to indicate pity, shock, anger and sometimes even sarcasm. Example: A: Se estrelló un avión. B: ¡Ay Bendito! (A: A plane crashed! B: Oh my god!).

Mateo Torres

9000

Death Department calls to make the main warning in my life: Today I am a warning in my life: today . No, “warning” is a strong word. This word implies that something else can be avoided, like the horn of a car when you cross the road at a red light: you have time to take one more step back. And this is rather a belated cry of “Caution!”.

My telephone on the other side of the room is ringing an alarm, a continuous gong ringing, unmistakable, like a church bell a block away. I immediately panic, and hundreds of my thoughts simultaneously drown out all the sounds in the world. I bet the same chaos goes on in the head of a skydiver when she jumps out of an airplane for the first time, or a pianist who plays the first concert in his life. Though I’ll never know for sure.

Some kind of madness. Just a minute ago, I was reading yesterday’s post on the Countdown forum, where the Doomed chronicle the last hours of their lives, change their status, and post photos in real time to the feed. A post about how a freshman is looking for a new home for his golden retriever. And now I’ll die too.

Today I… No… Yes. Yes.

The chest is compressed. I will die today.

I have always been afraid of death. I don’t know why, but it seemed to me that with my fear I could jinx her and she wouldn’t come for me. No, in the end, of course, it will come, but only when I get old. My dad even hammered into my head that I should pretend that I was the main character of some story, with whom nothing bad could happen. After all, the main characters do not die – they must always be on duty and save everyone.

But the noise in my head gradually subsides. On the other end of the line, the Death Department spokesman is waiting to tell me that today, at the age of eighteen, I will die.

Damn, I really…

I don’t want to pick up the phone. I would rather rush to my dad in the bedroom and scream into the pillow, because he ended up in intensive care at such a wrong time, or I would hit the wall with my fist, because my mother doomed me to an early death, and she herself died during childbirth. The phone rings for the thirteenth time, and it is impossible to avoid talking any further, just as it is impossible to avoid what will happen to me during the course of today.

I remove my laptop from my lap and get out of bed. I am a little shaken, and I feel weak all over my body. Like a zombie, I slowly make my way to my desk. The spitting image of the walking dead.

On the screen of the phone, of course, is displayed: “DEPARTMENT OF DEATH”.

I’m trembling, but I press answer. And I am silent. Do not know what to say. I’m just breathing, because I have less than twenty-eight thousand breaths left – that’s how many breaths a day does one who does not die – and I can breathe a little more while I still have the opportunity.

– Hello, I’m calling you from the Department of Death. My name is Andrea. Do you hear me, Timothy?

Timothy.

But my name is not Timothy.

“You have the wrong number,” I answer. The heart calms down, although I sympathize with this Timothy. Is it true. My name is Mateo. – Dad called me by his name and wants it to be inherited. Now it is possible again, if, of course, I ever have a son.

Key clatter is heard at the other end. Perhaps Andrea is correcting the entry or making a note in the database.

– Oh, I’m sorry. Timothy is the gentleman I just spoke to. Poor guy, he didn’t take the news well. And you are Mateo Torres, right?

Well, that’s it, the end of my last hope.

– Mateo, please confirm that it is really you. I’m afraid I still have a lot to call today.

I always imagined that my herald (that’s what they are officially called, I didn’t make it up) would be full of sympathy and help me accept the news or even play the bagpipe about what a tragedy it is, because I’m still very young. To be honest, I wouldn’t mind if Andrea, in a cheerful voice, wished me to have some fun and go all out, because now at least I know what will happen today, and therefore I will not open a new thousand-piece puzzle that will never I’ll finish and not go masturbate because sex with a live person scares me. But instead, Andrea let me know that I was wasting her precious time, which, unlike me, she had in bulk.

– Good. Mateo is me. I am Mateo.

– Mateo, I regret to inform you that in the next twenty-four hours you will suffer an untimely death. And despite the fact that we cannot prevent it, you still have the opportunity to enjoy life. – Further, the herald spreads that life is not always fair, and lists a list of events in which I can participate today. It’s not good to be angry with her, but she’s obviously already tired of saying the same jagged phrases about imminent death to hundreds, if not thousands of people. You won’t get any sympathy from her. It is possible that during our conversation she generally files her nails or plays tic-tac-toe with herself.

On the Countdown Forum, the Doomed post detailed records of everything from the second they received the call to descriptions of how they spend their Last Day. This is such a twitter for the dying. I have read miles of tapes in which the Doomed tell how they begged their heralds to reveal the secret of their deaths, but absolutely everyone knows that the details are not shared with anyone, not even former President Reynolds, who hid from death in an underground bunker four years ago and was ultimately killed by one of his own secret agents. The Department of Death gives only the date of death of a person, without specifying the exact time or cause.

– Do you understand everything I said?

– Yes.

– Please register on the portal www.death-cast.com and fill out a special form in case you have special wishes regarding your funeral. And don’t forget to choose an engraving for your tombstone. If you prefer cremation…

I’ve only been to a funeral once. When I was seven, my grandmother died, and during the ceremony I threw a tantrum because she didn’t want to wake up. Five years have gone by in a flash, the Department of Death has arrived, and suddenly everyone is awake at their own funeral. Being able to say goodbye to your loved ones before you die is amazing, but isn’t it better to spend the rest of your time just living? I probably would have thought differently if I were sure that at least someone would come to my funeral. If I had more friends than fingers on my hand …

– In general, Timothy, on behalf of all the employees of the Department of Death, I offer you my condolences. We are very sorry to lose you. Live this day to the fullest, okay?

– I’m Mateo.

Sorry, Mateo. I’m tired to death. Some kind of endless day today, calls take so much strength, sheer stress …

I hang up. I know it’s very impolite. I know, but I can’t listen to someone whine about their stress when I can lay back for an hour myself. Yes, there are hours – ten minutes. For example, I choke on a cough drop. Or I decide to go somewhere, and then I fall on the stairs and break my neck without even leaving the house. Or someone will break into my apartment and kill me… The only thing that can be safely ruled out is death from old age.

I kneel down. Today everything will end, and nothing more depends on me at all. I cannot set out on a journey through the dragon-infested lands to find myself a magical scepter and stop death. I can’t jump on a flying carpet and go in search of a genie who will grant my wish and give me the chance to live my humble life to the end. You can, of course, look for some mad scientist who will freeze me in a cryogenic chamber, but there is a possibility that I will die right in the course of a crazy experiment. Death is impossible to avoid, and today I will not be able to avoid it.

The list of people I will miss (if the dead can miss anyone at all) is so short that it can hardly be called a list. This is dad, because he did everything for me that he could. This is my best friend Lydia, not only because she did not ignore me in the school corridors, but also because she always sat across from me in the cafeteria, did geography projects with me and dreamed that one day she would become an environmentalist who would save the world, and I I will repay her by living in it. That’s the whole list.

Well, if someone asked who I will miss , I would have nothing to answer at all. Evil has never been done to me.

I even know why no one dared to try to make friends with me. True, I know. I’m kinda paranoid. Sometimes my classmates would invite me to go rollerblading in the park or drive a car late at night, but I always jumped off, because what if something goes wrong and we die .

It seems that the thing I will most regret is the missed opportunities, because I have squandered all my chances to really live and find close friends among the guys with whom I sat in the same class for four years. I will regret all the sleepovers with classmates that I missed: where everyone was noisy until the morning, played at Xbox Infinity and board games – I missed it because I was a coward.

But most of all I will regret Future Mateo, who, you see, would relax and begin to live. It’s hard to imagine him, but I imagine him as someone who isn’t afraid to try new things, like lighting a joint with friends, getting a driver’s license, or flying to Puerto Rico to learn more about his roots. Maybe he is dating someone, and it is possible that he is happy. Surely he entertains his friends by playing the piano and singing songs for them. His funeral would certainly be full of people – people who did not get to hug him one last time – and the ceremony would stretch out for an entire weekend.

Future Mateo would have a longer list of people he would miss.

But I’m not destined to be Future Mateo. No one will smoke with me, no one will listen to me play the piano, no one will sit next to my father’s car when I get my license. I don’t get to argue with my friends over the best bowling shoes or the right to drive Wolverine on a console.

I slide down to the floor again and think that now I am doom or miss. Or rather, not even that.

First pan, then gone.

00:42

Dad always takes a hot shower when he’s upset or unhappy with himself – this ritual calms him down. I began to repeat after him at the age of thirteen, because confused Mateo-thoughts began to surface and I needed tons of Mateo-time to deal with them. Now I’m standing in the shower because I feel guilty because I dared to hope that the world – or at least some part of it, with the exception of Lydia and dad – will be sad to lose me. I refused to be brave all the days I didn’t get a call with a warning. I wasted everything yesterday and I didn’t have a single tomorrow left.

I won’t tell anyone. Except dad, but he’s completely unconscious right now, so that doesn’t count. I don’t want to spend the last day of my life wondering if people around me are sincere when they say how sad they are. You can’t spend your last hours on Earth doubting those around you.

And yet I have to leave the apartment, somehow convince myself that now is the most ordinary day. I need to see my dad at the hospital and hold his hand for the first time since I was a kid. The first – and the last … Damn, the last time in my life.

I will be gone before I can get used to being mortal.

I also need to see Lydia and her one year old daughter Penny. When the baby was born, Lydia named me her godfather, and the worst thing is that I was supposed to take care of the girl in case Lydia passed away, because her boyfriend, Christian, died a little over a year ago. But how can an eighteen-year-old teenager with no means of subsistence take care of a child? That’s right, no way. But I was supposed to grow up and tell Penny about her mother who saved the planet and her cool dad; that I would take her in when I was financially independent and emotionally ready. However, I am thrown out of her life even before I have time to become something more to her than just a guy in a photo album – a guy that Lydia will probably say something about one day while Penny nods and maybe laughs. over my glasses, and then, turning the page, look for relatives whom he really knows and loves.

I can’t even be her ghost. But that’s no excuse not to tickle her one last time, wipe the mashed zucchini and green peas off her face, and give Lydia a little break so she can focus on studying for exams, brushing her teeth, brushing her hair, or taking a nap.

After that, I’ll somehow get away from my best friend and her daughter and be forced to go and start living.

I turn off the faucet and the water immediately stops dripping on me. Today you can not hang around in the shower for an hour. I take my glasses from the sink and put them on. Getting out of the bath, I slip and, falling backwards, I think: now let’s check whether life really flashes before my eyes – but at the last moment I grab the towel dryer and keep my balance. I breathe in and breathe out, breathe in and breathe out: to die in this way would be very sad. Someone would definitely add my case to the “Lie back in the shower” section of the “Stupid Deaths” blog – this is a super popular site that pisses me off.

I need to get out of here as soon as possible and go live, but first I need to get out of the apartment alive.

00:56

I write thank-you notes to my neighbors in apartments 4E and 4A and in them I tell them that my last day has come. While my dad was in the hospital, Elliot from 4E looked after me and brought me dinner, especially since my gas stove had not been working for the last week. This is how I fried my father’s empanadas ^[2]. Sean from 4A wanted to come in on Saturday to fix the burner, but now it’s not necessary. Dad knows how to fix it, and when I’m gone, he’ll probably want something to distract himself with.

I go to the closet and take out the blue-and-grey plaid flannel shirt Lydia gave me for my eighteenth birthday and put it on over a white T-shirt. I have never worn it outside. Today, this shirt is a way to be closer to Lydia.

I look at my watch. They used to be dad’s, but he gave them to me when he bought himself a digital one with a glowing screen (dad has poor eyesight). Almost one in the morning. On any other day, I would play video games until morning, spit on the fact that I would feel overwhelmed at school – I would still sleep in the “windows” between lessons. Of course, I shouldn’t have wasted so much free time, because I could take another subject of my choice, for example, drawing – and I don’t care that, for the life of me, I can’t draw. (No, of course, you don’t need to kill me. I just like to think that the past no longer matters now, but it still does for me.)0003

Maybe you should have joined a music group as a pianist? I would have become popular, then I would have risen one step higher, I would have started singing in the choir, after that – a duet with someone cool, and then it’s not far from solo, if I gather my will into a fist. Hell, even drama could be a cool elective if I got to play a role outside my comfort zone. But no, I decided that in my free time it was better to doze off alone.

At 00:58. When the figure changes to 01:00, I must leave the apartment. The house was my temple and my prison, and now for the first time in my life I need to leave it and breathe fresh air, and not force my way through it to get from point A to point B, as is usually the case. I need to count the trees, maybe sing my favorite song with my feet in the Hudson, and do my best to be remembered as the guy who died too soon.

01:00 AM

I can’t believe I’m never going back to my bedroom.

I unlock the lock, turn the doorknob and open the door.

Then I shake my head and slam it back.

I don’t want to go out into a world that will kill me prematurely.

Rufus Emeterio

01:05

When the Department of Death calls me, I beat my ex’s new boyfriend to death. I’m sitting on top of him with my knees on the ground on his shoulders, and the only reason he’s not going to get an eye right now is the loud ringtone of the Department of Death that everyone knows so well either from personal experience, or from the news, or from any lousy series, where with its help they achieve the effect of impending danger – there-dam-yes-a-a-am. My friends Tago and Malcolm stop cheering me on. There is a deathly silence, and I wait for the phone of Peck, that jerk, to ring too. But no, just mine. And perhaps the bell saying I was about to lose my life just saved the life of my adversary.

“You have to answer, Ruf,” Taego says. He recorded our fight on video because he loves to watch fights online, but now he is staring at the screen of his phone, as if he was afraid that he was about to get a call.

“Damn it,” I say. My heart is beating like crazy, faster than when I ran into Peck, faster than when I laid him down on my shoulder blades. His left eye is already swollen, and in the right one reflects pure horror. The Department of Death calls strictly until three in the morning. Peck can’t know for sure if I’m going to take him to the next world with me or not.

Like me.

My phone goes silent.

– Maybe you made a mistake? Malcolm says.

But the bell rings again, and this time Malcolm is silent.

I don’t have empty hopes. I don’t know the statistics, but I certainly don’t remember the Department of Death screwing up the warnings. And in general, the Emeterio family is not very lucky in terms of survival. Meet the Creator early? We are at your service!

I’m trembling and panic is pounding inside me, as if someone is hitting me on the head non-stop. I have no idea how I will die, but I know for sure that it will happen. And my life does not flash before my eyes. Yes, in principle, I do not expect anything like this, even when I find myself in a second from death.

Peck starts to fidget under me and I raise my fist to calm him down.

“Maybe he has a gun on him,” Malcolm says. It is the largest in our company. So big that if he were around, he could have helped my sister rip off her seat belt when our car rolled over and crashed into the Hudson.

Before the bell rang, I could bet anything that Peck didn’t have a gun on him, because we caught him after work. But I won’t put my life on the line, no. I drop the phone on the ground, search Peck, push him on his stomach and check for a pocketknife on his belt. Then I get up, and he remains lying on the ground.

Malcolm removes Peck’s backpack from under the blue car where Tago had thrown it, unzips it, turns it upside down, and two comic books, Black Panther and Hawkeye, fall out onto the ground.

– Clean.

Taego takes off, rushing towards Peck, and – I swear – I think he is about to kick his head with his boot like a soccer ball. But instead, Taego grabs my cell phone from the ground and answers the call.
