Taino influence When the Spanish settlers
colonized Puerto Rico in the early 16th century, many thousands of Taíno people lived on the island.
Taíno words like hamaca ("hammock"), hurakán("hurricane"), and tobacco came into general Spanish as the two cultures blended.
Puerto Ricans still use many Taíno words that are not part of the international Spanish lexicon.
The Taino influence in Puerto Rican Spanish is most evident in geographical names, such as Mayagüez, Guaynabo, Humacao or Jayuya. You will also find Taino words in different parts of the Caribbean.
