pantalones

In principle it would be the plural of pants, but it turns out that this garment is symmetrical because it is placed covering totally or partially both legs, and it is one of the cases in which the plural is also used to name a single object that seems to be formed by two parts. See canvases (lunfardo), Pantalone ("character of the Comedy of Art"), Pantaleon (remote origin of 'trousers').

  
asiento-kilómetro

It is a poorly made query, but there may be a good intention, associating the words with a hyphen because they are related to the concept of AKO ("seats/kilometers offered"), better known internationally by the acronym in English ASM ("available seat miles").

turbo-madrid
  19

We will rehearse an interpretation of this consultation 128302; . The hyphen in this case must mark a union or connection between both terms, and by the second we already assume that it is geographical. And it turns out that for the first one too, because Turbo is a district in the department of Antioquia (Colombia); but to be a direct route to Madrid (capital of Spain) looks complicated, mostly by the ocean. Then I remembered that it is not the only place with that name, and of course, there is another one closer as a municipality of the department of Cundinamarca (Colombia), which is only 740 km by mainland. Anyway, I guess they confused the dictionary with the Michelin way.

  
octothorpe
  9

It is a name for the "number sign, or numeral" ( ), which also tries to avoid confusion with the sharp or "sustained" (98'' ) in musical notation. The origin of this word is not confirmed, but the legend attributes it to the supervisor Don McPherson of the American telephone company Bells Labs, who introduced in the phones with DTMF keyboard the buttons with an asterisk ( * ) and a numeral , but as users confused it with a sustained cut for the healthy and invented the name octothorpe , 'octo' ("eight") inspired by its 8 points and 'Thorpe' as a tribute to Olympic athlete Jacobus Franciscus "Jim" Thorpe. Either way, this name didn't become as popular, and half a century later the word hash was added to the confusion.
