It is a lunfarda voice, appearing in the 1970s. It is a way of life where goods are consumed, but always at the lowest possible cost, even if the quality is evidently lower. In many cases it is a way to maintain social status when you suffer an economic deterioration, but it is also usually a lifestyle of those who can still pay for a better service always choose the cheapest; but he doesn't deprive himself of it. The origin is in the word diesel, in its conception of diesel-powered car that uses diesel as fuel, which is cheaper than naphtha, but otherwise the vehicle looks the same. It is because when the income is no longer enough to maintain the car, the solution to not lose your own mobility is to exchange it for a dieseler. [Note: "nafta" or "gasoil" have other names outside Argentina . ]
It is a word that was supposed of the lunfardo, but now I discover that it is also used far from the Río de la Plata. It's "sobar or graer, until you polish or wear something away." It appears to come from the Genoese ("glow by luster") , which must have a Latin origin in luere ( "washing rubbing") . See lullir , ludir , luir .
Although it does not exist in Spanish, it is used by influence of English rather than the correct flammable form ("which can be lit with fire") . The problem is not in flame ( "flame, fire") but in the prefix in- which in addition to "in , inside, content" also means "missing, removes"; that's why some misunderstand flammable as inflatable ("no flame, no fire").
It is an "academy, cultural and educational institution". As in Spanish, English takes it from the Latin academy, originating in Greek 913; 954; 945; 948; 949; 956; 949; 953; 945; (akademeia), which is a garden of philosophical education founded by Plato and dedicated to the hero Akademos.
