The work brings together series of linguistic articles in which the author, a professor and academician of the RAE, traces the past and current usage of Spanish words and expressions. With concrete cases, he explains how meanings change and what traces they have left in the language, combining rigour and popularisation.

A work for readers curious about Spanish, especially those who enjoy the history of words, etymology and language usage.
