The Spanish language has evolved over time, and during the 21st century, new words have developed.

This new vocabulary includes Spanish words and expressions used by young people and is known for being short, using foreign words from English, and adapting to new technologies, like dating apps, with the word "hacer un next".

Examples

This list is incomplete; you can help by adding missing items. (January 2025)

Some examples include:

  1. Fife refers to generally heterosexual men who like football. They are also considered to exhibit Machismo and even racism.
  2. En plan… (transl. In plan…) is generally used to explain something, like o sea... (transl. I mean…).
  3. Petarlo (no word in English) is to make something epic, or incredible... Fundéu said that an "18th century term like "petar" has become slang in the 21st".
