    Interesting. I have never heard of coger being fuck and the only Spanish I speak is with latinamericans. Is it a more recent slang?

        In order of frequency I would guess: Cuban, Colombian, Puerto Rican, Venezuelan, Argentina, and then the rest.

      slang but not new slang as it’s widely used and it’s even in the RAE dictionary (31 point).

      Seemingly used in central america, Argentina, Bolivia, México, Uruguay, Venezuela and Dominican Republic.
