The etymological origin is in the Latin passive verb masturbari, although there is no agreement on how it came to be formed; from the sinful perspective on this practice, it would be the union of manus, us ("hand") and the active verb stuprare ("to desecrate, especially sexually" ), but another version says that it is the union of mas, maris ("masculine") with turbatio, onis ("arousal, disturbance"), because it was supposed to be practiced only by males.

expósito: It is said of who was raised in a hospice for orphaned babies, where they were usually abandoned by their parents. As a curiosity, when these children did not have a surname they were baptized with that of 'Expósito', so today many people with an ancestor educated in an orphanage still maintain that surname, which would not be Spanish but Latin, since expositus means "exposed", in this case to the elements, to abandonment; formed by ex ( "out" ) positus ( "post , placed" ) . It comes from the Roman custom of exposing the newborn on the ground and if the father lifts it up it is because he accepts it, and if not, anyone can lift it up and take it away. See inclusa .
huérfano: In principle it is "who does not have his parents", but according to his etymology, it can be extended to those who lose their children, or lack something important. From the Latin orphanus, which was taken from the Greek 959; 961; 966; 945; 957; 959; 962; ( orphans "abandoned, separated") . The initial /h/ has an editorial origin, since printers formerly wrote hverfano to indicate that that /v/ was pronounced as /u/, and then it was incorporated into the language.
pínfano: 1º_ Variant of pifano ("piccolo, and its interpreter in a military band") . 2º_ Child orphaned by parents, in particular if they died in a war. The accepted origin is that it comes from the previous etymology, because these boys were cared for by the army and in military bands they used to play the pifano. But another interesting origin circulates on the web, also from German, such as pimpf ("spoiled, unruly, rascal child") that was used during World War II in Hitler Youth camps to call children from 6 to 10 years old, orphaned or evacuated from cities under Allied bombing. Being the Spanish army admirer of the German, he took many German words among which could be this one that became the affectionate 'pinfanito' and then in a regression as 'pinnfano'. See english/brat . 3º_ It is a popular way of calling the long-legged mosquito or mosquito. 4º_ By the previous one, it is said familiarly to the person very tall, with long legs.

chinchín: 1º_ It is an Americanism that is used as "little thing, very small, of little value", surely a reduplication of chin ("small"). 2º_ It also means "paying the total of a purchase or debt in cash", probably like an onomatopoeia of the sound of the cash register, or the tinkling of coins.
