Exploring Equatoguinean Slang for “Friend”

Equatorial Guinea’s slang is influenced by Spanish, indigenous languages, and neighboring African countries. “Tronco” is sometimes used to mean “buddy”. “Pana”, common in other Spanish-speaking countries, is also used here. In Bubi, one of the local languages, “bobo” can be used for friend. Young people might use “cuate”, borrowed from Latin American Spanish.
