Watch this passage from the documentary  ‘La Educación Prohibida’. What did it make you think about? Write your thoughts here.

 

‘To despacite’… Are you SERIOUSSSS???????

The verb ‘to despacite’  is now part of the English language. The massive popularity of Fonsi’s song ‘Despacito’ has led to the creation of this new word.

This was, of course, a prank that Vaughan’s group played on us on  28th December, but…

…this kind of new creations is not a new phenomenon. In recent years the English language has included loads of words and concepts to its vocabulary. We can use the verb ‘to google’, girls wear ‘jeggings’ and some people are turning into ‘freegans’, just to mention some of them.

Language is a living thing, you know. So this time I want you to  search for new words in English, write them here and express what you think about this phenomenon.
