Acronym of "Cosmopolita" (citizen of the world) and "Paleto" (rural person, with few studies and unsophisticated). Used as a derogatory term to refer to those who profusely use Anglo-Saxon words during spanish conversations. Words that have their correct translation in Spanish. It is usually due either to a lax knowledge of English that you want to hide or to the ignorance of the Spanish vocabulary itself, which prevents you from knowing the Spanish term equivalent to the Anglo-Saxon .
