Elaborating on what the colleagues say I do not know if I will contribute something new but I like the word. The four-letter word whose etymology furoya speaks to us and which we transcribe as Yahweh or Yahweh, lengthening the first vowel, by the Hebrew letters written backwards in that language, the yod (our i or y), the he (our a, e), the waw (our v, f, w, u) and again the he. The Greek texts translated it as kyrios and the Latins as dominus, lord or lord and others with less reverence, master, master, chief.
Interjection used almost everywhere to initiate the march of donkeys and other cavalries or to accelerate it. From here was born the term muleteer. All the donkeys alistanos, although there are few left in my land, understand the meaning of arre! and XOO! its opposite. Our neighbors upstairs often say: Nin tanto arre que fuxa nin tanto xo que parare : Neither so much nor so bald.
In addition to the Argentine Cuyo with capital letter, beautiful region from what I have seen, with lowercase is a relative adjective derived from the Latin cuius , genitive singular of the relative pronoun qui quae quod , of which , of which , of which . It is also used in plural. It therefore agrees in gender and number with the noun to which it immediately precedes, alluding to a possessor or referent mentioned above.
Dish of the gastronomy of Cantabria and Asturias, almost equivalent to the Basque marmitako. It is a stew of potatoes with bonito from the north that fishermen made in their incursions through the Cantabrian Sea. He is now the gastronomic star of San Vicente de la Barquera and other places on the Cantabrian coast.
In a ladder the footprint is the flat depth of each rung and the cant is the height from rung to rung. In other places they also say footprint and counter-footprint, step and counterstep, step and partition or pedada and elevation. The law of Blondel, French architect of the eighteenth century, states that 2 footprints plus 1 cant must be equal to 64 cms. Its ideal relationship would be: the cant, vertical part of the step, 18 cms and the footprint, horizontal part, 28. Other architects somewhat decrease the 64 cms. In any case, it is necessary to take into account the space available and other circumstances when making the staircase.
From the Greek scholé , leisure , free time , study center , school and arché , principle, origin, authority , power : Diadochus , director of the Greek philosophical schools , guarantor of his line of thought after his foundation . The first scholar of the Academy at Plato's death was his nephew Speusippus, at the Lyceum, Theophrasthus, in the Garden, Hermarcus of Mytilene and at the Stoa, Cleantes.
Second person plural of the imperative of the verb to do with the enclitic pronoun of the same person . Do not confuse with the infinitive haceros and much less with the noun aceros as it happens in the old joke of the Basques who see repeatedly on the road the advertising poster "Aceros de Llodio" . And at the end one says: What, Patxi! Do we make Llodio or not?
In Aymara, darkness. Dense, coastal and morning fog from southern Peru and northern Chile near the Atacama Desert, which is displaced by the wind inland. I have read that around here they use fog catchers that can get several liters of water a day per square meter of mesh. A phenomenal idea that can be transferred to places that have high relative humidity values.
Galician term . In my Asturian land alistana they say feije . It is a bundle or herd of green or dry grass, rapeseed, collard greens, ferraña or other fodder for animals. Since I was a child I learned to do the feijes well so that they did not spoil on the way whether I had to carry them on my back or on the hooks of the donkey.
It is the shrub par excellence of my land with a beautiful flower in the month of May, which has always warmed the Alistanas kitchens. Its leaves secrete a pringous substance, the labdanum, which there they call cerute. In the rainy temperate autumns and in symbiosis with a bacterium, according to researchers from the University of Valladolid, from its roots sprouts the boletus edilis, the mushroom of the rockrose, say the alistanos, a gastronomic delight. These days I have remembered Victor Jara, the Chilean singer-songwriter, murdered by Pinochet and his panda in collaboration with those above in '73. It seems that they want to start doing justice. Good hours, green sleeves! 50 years later!
Instrument of torture used by the Inquisition to make those who fell into its clutches sing. I think some dictatorships have also used it in more recent times. It consists of a pointed wooden pyramid on which the body of the unfortunate was dropped. The idea is attributed to the sixteenth-century Bolognese jurist Ippolito Marsili.
