azzurra: She is Italian, a feminine azzurro ( "blue" ). It can be related to the italian football shirt, or swollen, or squadra, by the blue color that identifies it.
carabinieri: It is Italian, means "carabineros", which are part of the Arma dei Carabinieri ("Arma de Carabineros" ), a security body or gendarmerie of Italy.
vert blanc: It is French, and means "white green" or better " (grape) immature white". But I think it's better to see aligot.
depeche mode: It's not Spanish, it's French misspelled. Dépeche mode ("urgent fashion, fast, light" was the name of a women's fashion magazine, which served as inspiration for christening the English pop band Depeche Mode.
prêt à porter: Casual clothing style, used daily. The name is French where preta porté means "ready to wear".
beige: It is a galicism for a color, which in Spanish has the beige version. . . although no one uses it. Its hexadecimal code is 'F5F5DC' .
tirailleur: It is a French word that translates as "shooter, sniper". It was the name for a Gallic army advanced soldier, usually from his African colonies, during the 20th century. In addition to the classic Senegalese tirailleurs, there were also Algerians, Moroccans, Tunisians and even Vietnamese. The origin is in the marksmen of the avant-garde of the Napoleonic army, who fired badly, into the tuntún; and it's a puller variant that comes from tir ("shot, shot" ).
zaradependencia: Journalistic invention for the situation of a supplier of the Zara store that has it as main or sole customer.
lesboodiante: I don't think anyone has the courage to propose this adefesio (and on top with a double! ) . Although I also don't know if there is anything as specific as "mysolésbic." See lesbian .
ecoagobiado: And, it's another invention of advertising or journalistic court. Putting a little will should be the "anguish of being in the house"; but no, echo is an apocope of "ecology", and "agob" is for bad news about the deterioration of the environment. Anyway. . .
celulómano: In truth, this is another cheap neologism; but it's hard to create something better to name a "cell phone addict." (Or dig into classical mythology looking for some magical artifact to make an elliptical reference to mobile devices. . . or we fall into paper like nomophobia. )
insustentable: That cannot be sustained, unsustainable. It is more interpreted as "not preserved, maintained or fed".
axionado: Regardless of whether it may be a triggered error, as john suggests, or a soap spy, as Danilo Enrique Noreña Benitez says, it could also be an adjective for something that has the characteristics of an axion. As this is a theoretical particle that would explain just asymmetrical behavior within quantum physics, it is possible that in some text they have used a neologism as 'axioned' to justify differences in load, or parity, or symmetry. . . that should not exist.
en base o con base: If it pretends to be a query about what the correct shape is, it is not only out of place in a dictionary but is a trick question : it lacks words. Colloquially they ended up using both, in most cases the least bad is the second (the first would originate from an Italianism); but in a forum with prepared people this could generate an interesting debate. Not here.
baral o varal: See baral, manly .
haiito o haito: See thereto, halito, Haiti , . . .
si no o sino: See if, no, or , but.
asertado o acertado: See successful , successful, assertive, assertive.
luva o luba: See luva (archaism by "glove" ), luba (various meanings).
gran manzana: "The Big Apple" is the name by which New York City (USA) is popularly known. In principle it appears to be a nickname coined by the rapporteur and equestrian journalist John J. Fitz Gerald in the 1920s. The explanation (which personally sounds more like an excuse) is that you heard it say to a jockey who saw New York and his racecourse as the destination that seeks every horse racer, such as "the apple that all horses chase." Considering that this localist anecdote fits with the promotional use made by the city of the slogan 'Big Apple', I almost prefer to believe that Big Apple is actually a bad translation of the Spanish concept of "main apple", the political, economic, religious center of a community : its main building block, which perfectly fits the importance of the former capital of the country. View apple (urban block) .
