5 thoughts on “Word of the day – ringorrango”

1. You know, I never knew _that_ was a Spanish word.

2. I didn’t know is existed either until I came across is while looking through my Spanish dictionary. This word just caught my eye, and it’s such a satisfying word to say, though quite a challenge if you have trouble rolling your Rs.

3. I had never heard such a word! Well, there’s no doubt that one NEVER stops learning even one’s own language! I am a native Spanish speaker.

4. Typical spanish folk song, from Asturias, the north:

   Por decir Viva San Roque
   me metieron prisionero,
   y ahora que estoy en prisiones,
   ¡Viva San Roque y el perro!

   A tu mandil échale UN RINGORRANGO,
   que retumbe el agua en la arena,
   qué triste se despide llorando
   la mi morena.
   que me diga que sí, que me diga que no,
   a la mi morena la camelo yo.
   la camelo yo, la he de camelar
   a la mi morena la saco a bailar.

   Need a traslation? 🙂
