MADRID - The Spanish royal institution Real Academia Española (RAE) which has to ensure that the Spanish language and words used properly presented a new dictionary. The RAE and institutions from 21 other Spanish-speaking countries, like every year their heads together and created a new official dictionary.
It is already the 23 th edition of the Diccionario de la Lengua Española in which a record number of 93 111 words are found. From this huge number of words, there are approximately 9,000 new, much derived from the English or other languages, dif something the president a bit bothering. Other words are again derived from Spanish dialects spoken around the world but speaking in many places and used.
Obviously we can not here place the entire list of 9,000 new words, but some are interesting to mention. The words Blaugrana, BIRRA example are included in the new edition in 2014 but the modern word selfie not (something they wanted to actually go car photo call).
The word BIRRA, beer in Italian, dif is now included in the new dictionary, and may also officially in the Spanish go many used words. The French word AFFAIRE has now become an official Spanish words and so one may now use when speaking about a love affair.
One of the most used words in politics and newspapers in recent years characterized by the economic crisis, the word MILEURISTA what betelend much as 1000euro-ist, or someone who earned around 1,000 euros per month and it should ends meet. The word originally comes from a letter that a graduate but poorly paid working woman wrote to the newspaper El Pais.
The word SERENDIPIA is derived from the word serendipity, once served as something still find valuable when you were not even looking for it. It is also the title of a romantic 2001 film starring Kate Beckinsale dif and John Cusack as protagonists.
One of the modern Internet derived words officially now is TUITEAR ie twittering ie writing short texts 140 characters on Twitter. The modern English word DRON (without e), a small, unmanned or remote controlled flying object has now become an official Spanish word.
As previously reported is also the word Blaugrana included in the new dictionary. Actually it is a Catalan word, something dif that sure many Spaniards at this time will not be so happy, but also a common word to indicate the colors of FC Barcelona, the red and blue vertical stripes.
Slightly less fun is the word that describes YIHAD the Islamic holy war. Admittedly not a fun word but a very overused word means in the language academy important enough for the new dictionary.
A word which is quite nice again to use AGROTURISMO is what defines the rural tourism, which is becoming increasingly popular. It's not just about Turismo Rural but especially the form of tourism in which visitors actively participate in the example cooperate on farms, wineries and other rural activities.
Another nice word AMIGOVIO which is derived from amigo and novio, or a relationship dif between a friend and courtship. The word Bicicleteria, a place where bicycles sold and repaired, is now officially a Spanish word. A worod what has this to make me BICICLETEADA is what is used in Argentina dif and Peru, and what defines an organized bike ride.
There are too many words to mention but on this page you will find a long alphabetical list of words, with explanations, dif in Spanish of course. What is your funniest word in Spanish and what did you have liked to see in the new dictionary? - (Remco Stoffer)
