It is a hormonal imbalance that prevents the body from assimilating glucose, which leads to a high level of sugar in the blood. Two of its symptoms are excessive urination and sweet-tasting urine, and that is why this disease is known as diabetes (from the Latin with Greek origin for "with a continuous flow of water") and mellitus (also Latin from the Greek for "with a taste of honey"). See diabetes insipidus.

ley de cunningham
  4

While it is not a true law from a scientific perspective, it is so named to simulate an empirical character to a humorous observation, at the level of Murphy's law or the law of L. Still, it has a basis of psychosocial behavior and in some cases platitudes. The wording of this law proposed by Steven McGeady would be: "the best way to get the right answer on the internet is not to ask a question, it's to write the wrong answer". The name is an homage to Ward G. Cunningham, the creator of the first wiki, since it is in these environments that this behavior is most observed, and although it was originally applied to the Usenet network, the concept today extends to discussion forums, social networks, and discussion and opinion sites all over the internet. We can accept that from the anonymity and security behind a keyboard it is easier to confront and assert anything, and that from everything published we can find a valid concept, but most of them will be partial, erroneous or personal interpretations and we will always have to discriminate from the crowd what is useful. Also, it's a no-brainer that correcting a bad answer takes precedence over what is just a question. Let's take this dictionary as an example: it is full of queries (and a few well-written ones) that are innocuous until they are answered, but if it is done wrong it is already an obligation of the community to correct it, for the prestige of an "educational and research project" and above all so that the error does not spread; which would fit perfectly with Cunningham's law.

  
bailaora de tronío
  7

It may not be understood because they are vulgarized words, but also very well-known: 'bailaora' is the feminine of 'bailaor' ("dancer, especially the flamenco dancer") and 'tronío' is for "tronido" ("grace, elegance").

  
cuento chino
  6

It is said of a lie, of a false story. The tradition traces its origins to the work of the Venetian merchant Marco Polo The Book of Wonders (written by the amanuensis Rustichello of Pisa in 1298), where he recounted a journey through China and the adventures lived. Since the Far East was unknown to Europeans, the whole story seemed fantastic to them, invented by the author, who swore it was true and no one believed him.

  
carrera de embolsados
  5

cúter

triolet
  6

This is a word that is not yet officially in the dictionary of the RAE, although in Spanish there are several uses of foreign voices, in music, poetry or in picadas. I will stop at the latter, which is used in Argentina for small plates joined by an axis and placed on the table to offer diners olives, cheese cubes, peanuts, salty sticks, and that are not necessarily three. It comes from the French triolette (pr. Triolet) which is associated with the shape of the clover leaf (excuse the redundancy) similar to the arrangement of the three plates or trays.
