Meanings sorted by:

pruina
  41

From the Latin pruina, frost. It is a seedy and whitish coating of leaves, stems and fruits in some vegetables similar to the frost of winter mornings. Now that we are harvesting, we observe this mantle, similar to the fogging of a glass fresh from the freezer, on the skin of the grapes that protects them from the sun's rays, from the rain and from the attack of insects. In it also lie the yeasts that carry out the fermentation of the wine.

  
movimiento areolar
  30

Areolar velocity, rotating movement of areas. According to Kepler's second law, the planets develop around the sun an areolar motion, that is, the line that joins each planet with the sun sweeps equal areas at equal times. So when the planet approaches the sun it accelerates its speed and when it moves away it slows it down. The law of universal gravitation was enunciated by Newton somewhat later.

  
lawfare
  46

As comrade John says, it is a newly created Anglicism, contraction of law, law and warfare, war. The term already began to be used in the last decades of the last century. Legal warfare, illegal use of justice for political purposes to destroy the opponent, to gain power or to stay in it. Of course, for this to happen it must be done in collusion with the judges themselves. This is what happened in Brazil with the imprisonment of Lula da Silva. This is what the right usually does almost everywhere when people wake up from their political anesthesia. Come! To wake up.

  
nodicia de kesos
  35

Text on parchment that was written in ancient Asturian of the tenth century by the monk Semeno, despensero of the Monastery of The Saints Justo and Pastor of Rozuela near the city of León. It is an annotation about cheeses in the Romance language that began to distance itself from Latin in this area. The parchment is currently in the Cathedral Archive of León.

  
menda lerenda
  65

Menda is a gypsy that would come from some case, perhaps the locative, (mande-mandi), of the pronoun me-man of first person in the caló or Iberian Roma. Lerenda is an emphatic and euphonic addition with rhyme in consonant. It designates the speaker and means the personal pronoun of the first person but in an indirect way, so when he makes the subject the verb goes in the third person. "This menda (I) is always willing." It can be accompanied by the article (the menda), or some adjective (this menda, mi menda, tu menda, su menda). It can also mean someone who is indeterminate or whose identity you don't want to clarify.

  
molnupiravir
  57

Unfortunate name of one of the anti-Covid drugs that some Pharmaceutical companies are apparently successfully developing in ferrets. The technical name of this antiviral is MK-4482/EIDD-2801. It is a ribonucleoside inhibitor that hinders the entry of the virus into cells by tricking it into the RNA copy. This pill and others like it that are being developed against Covid seems that they can definitely lead us to normality.

  
homo homini lupus
  63

Latin locution of the Asinaria (comedy of the donkeys) of Plautus, comedy writer of the III-II century BC. of C . which would partially modify the English philosopher Thomas Hobbes in the seventeenth century. Lupus est homo homini ended in: Homo homini lupus: Man is a wolf to man. Expression of Hobbes' anthropological pessimism versus Rousseau's optimism.

  
copo
  54

Among the various meanings of this term I want to highlight this one that also points to a companion and is used in my land. It is the portion or flock of wool, linen, cotton or other similar textile material that is arranged in the spinning wheel to be spun with the spindle. In my childhood, Alistanas women spun wool and linen flakes on long winter nights while chatting.

  
glíglico
  69

Literary gibberish of some Hopscotch characters who hide their love affairs from the reader. Cortázar, its creator, takes some terms from the lunfardo, although most result from a musical phonetic with Spanish and Greco-Latin semantic roots. I see that some in the Dictionary call it gygic or gylic, but Cortázar himself in chapter 4 of Rayuela calls it glygic probably from the reduplication of the Greek root of glykys, sweet, pleasant as the glucose of the must of the Greek harvests.

  
blacklladolid
  29

Literary contest of black novel that has been held this year 21 in the castle of Fuensaldaña in Valladolid during these days of the summer of San Miguel, sponsored by the winery Cuatro Rayas. The binomial of literature and crime will be joined next year by the delicious wine of our Land of Flavor.

  
leonesidad
  34

The suffix -idad serves us to create abstract nouns such as clarity or generosity. And although we will not find this term in dictionaries we could consider it as the abstract quality of being Leonese, now that some are determined to create Leonese autonomy.

  
taquicárdica
  38

Feminine of tachycardic, adjective of tachycardia, medical term of Greek origin: From tachys, fast, fast and kardia, heart. If the pulsations of our heart accelerate for no apparent reason it is a warning that something is not going. If the heart accelerates after an effort, then it is normal.

  
cantore al liuto

In Italian, lute singer, luttist singer, Italian renaissance musician continuing the medieval minstrels and troubadours, ancestral memory of Orpheus and his lyre. He sang always accompanied by a stringed instrument such as the lut.

  
mefistófeles
  39

Also Mephisto, literary name of Lucifer, immortalized in Goethe's Faust, typical of German mythology. Its probable etymology is this: Me, negative particle, phos photos, light and philos, friend, the one who loves. The opposite of Lucifer, the light bearer.

  
psicoafectivo
  39

In my opinion it is a redundant term of affective, because everything affective or related to affections, whether feelings, emotions or passions, alguedonic states of our sensitivity, lies in the psyche, although it can also have a somatic expression that we sometimes disguise

  
parleru
  44

Northwestern pronunciation of parlero, which speaks or parla much and often without substance. In the Asturian of my land it was common to close the pronunciation of the o in u in the end of the word. This phonetics occurs especially in the elderly. The new generations have a more Castilian phonetics.

  
ekaterina
  39

Proper name of woman characteristic of Slavic languages such as Russian whose sonority is very pleasant. In German Katharina, in French Katherine and in our language Catalina that probably comes from the Greek kátharos, pure, clean, from which also derives the name of the Cathars or Albigensians.

  
atochamiento
  35

Action and result of cluttering or obstructing with atocha or esparto or other material the passage of something through a duct. Extension means any traffic jam, obstruction, traffic jam, caking and congestion of vehicles or persons.

  
autoideologización
  33

This term that does not appear in any dictionary is difficult for me to understand, because all ideologization or formation of ideology is carried out in relation to others, in contact with the community or society in which we live. Ideology both in its theoretical aspect carried out from the psychological conscience and in its practical aspect from the moral conscience is formed in contact with our fellowmen. Outside of this we will not know how to think or do anything. Another thing is that we learn to criticize the dominant ideology.

  
orgumio
  79

Glíglico term of Julio Cortázar in Rayuela . We already know that this language created by our universal Argentine writer has a semantically open literary and sexual character with Spanish syntax. Phonetics frequently comes close as well, from which we might deduce that orgasm means.
