Meaning of batir by furoya





furoya

batir
  31

In addition to all the meanings related to "giving blows" in a literal and figurative sense, in lunfardo is "to give away, reveal, say to expose or demonstrate something". While it may come from the vulgar Italian batere ("to hit, hit"), which in Spanish was used (today it is an archaism) as "to throw", and which is associated with the fact of throwing the words, telling an inconvenient truth or revealing a secret, it may also have reached the lunfardo of another slang version such as báttere ("proclaim"). See ortiba .
