English Language Broadcast - New English 'loan words' added to the Spanish dictionary - 04/01/25
Manage episode 459519764 series 63543
'Dana' was chosen as Spain's word of the year in 2024... it translates to 'cold drop', and its a term used in Spain to refer to high impact rainfall. A choice very different to Oxford and Cambridge's words of the year, which were 'brain rot' and 'manifest', respectively. 'Dana' is also one of the additions to the Spanish dictionary in December of last year, when 4074 updates were made to the RAE, including loan words (espóiler, sérum, fitness, rapear), expressions and removals. In today's broadcast, we'll talk to Amalia Pedrero, Spanish Language Professor at the CEU San Pablo University in Madrid, about Spanish words and language.
