• Venezuelan people often use racial terms (e.g., 'negro,' 'negra') and physical descriptions (e.g., 'flaco,' 'gordo') as terms of endearment, regardless of the actual meaning. Be prepared to be called 'gringo,' even if you are not from a typical Spanish-speaking country, as this is not intended to be offensive. When discussing political or humanitarian issues, approach topics with empathy and respect due to the strong societal divisions.
