In Colombian Spanish, 'botar' means to throw away or discard. The literal meaning 'throwing' in standard usage refers to throwing an object, but here it means disposing of things. A learner familiar only with the 'throw' meaning may miss the 'discard' sense entirely.

A very common Colombian greeting, often contracted in speech to 'quiubo'. It functions purely as a casual hello and does not expect a literal answer about what has happened.

Literally refers to a bird emptying its crop. Used to pressure someone into saying something they are holding back. Non-compositional and vivid.

Used to indicate that someone is in a place only briefly and has no permanent ties there. The phrase 'estoy de paso' is a common and natural way to say this in Colombian Spanish.
