    LUNFARDO
    Lunfardo was the lower-class slang of Buenos Aires in the early years of the 20th century. It was heavily influenced by the speech of the Italian immigrants who arrived in Argentina in huge numbers around the turn of the century. Its vocabulary was popularized through the words of tango music, and many terms have entered popular speech throughout the River Plate region. Despite its humble origins, lunfardo is now widely regarded as a fundamental part of the cultural heritage of Buenos Aires, and an academy dedicated to its study was founded in 1962. Nowadays it survives more in the words of classic tango songs than in daily use. Nevertheless, one of the typical features of lunfardo persists in popular speech – the inversion of the syllables in a standard Spanish word. Thus one can hear “lorca” used instead of “calor” or “ofri” instead of “frío”, and this can be applied to almost any word.
