It is unequivocal that the Spanish language, used by the Latins in their colloquial jargon and each one in their own way to communicate, is not only a unique mixture of these idioms as is the case of “dime a ver”, it also has anglicisms, neologisms and other diverse “isms”.

All these idioms often have meanings that are not clear to those who do not know them. The origin can be found in cases so old that it is necessary to look into the linguistic roots to interpret them, since most of them date back to very distant times, although others have only appeared in the last decades.
