Cuban greetings are lively and informal. “¿Qué bolá?” is a common way to say “What’s up?”. “¿Cómo andas, acere?” is another friendly greeting, with “acere” meaning “buddy”. “¿Qué vuelta?” is used to ask what’s going on. When saying goodbye, you might hear “Nos vemos, yuma” if you’re a foreigner, as “yuma” refers to foreigners, especially Americans.
