    DOCUMENTO NACIONAL DE IDENTIDAD
    It is mandatory in many Spanish-speaking countries to carry a national identity card, or Documento Nacional de Identidad (DNI), showing the bearer's personal details and a photo. In Spain it is also called a carné, and all Spanish citizens have to carry one from the age of fourteen. The card is renewed every five or ten years at police stations, and must be shown to police upon demand. A similar document, the “Cédula (Nacional) de Identidad” is carried in Colombia, Paraguay, Uruguay, Venezuela, Argentina and Chile. In 2006 Spain began introducing an electronic identity card, which has a microchip containing the holder's personal details in digitized form.

  • 19 adobe

    (Sp. model spelled same [aðóβe] < Arabic at-tub 'the brick')
        DARE: 1759.
       1) Sundried brick made of clay, straw, and water.
       2) A structure, usually a house, made from the same material.
       3) Clay suitable for fashioning such bricks.
       The first definition is attested to in the DRAE; Santamaría confirms the usage of the second in the Southwest, providing the example "She lived in her old adobe," also noting that the lot or grounds on which such a structure was to be built could be referred to as "an adobe sole." ( Sole, according to the OED, is an obsolete term meaning "the foundation of a building; the site of a city, etc.") Spanish architecture was also greatly influenced by the Moors who introduced styles and materials now intimately associated with the Southwest.
       4) As an adjective, several English sources note that the term denotes Mexican origin and usually connotes inferiority. For instance, the Mexican dollar or silver peso was called a "dobie dollar," or "dobie," for short. Cowboys were familiar with adobe as building material on the ranches and haciendas where they worked. Cowboy English is the source of the expression dobe wall listed below, according to Bentley, Adams, and Watts.
       5) Hendrickson's contention that adobe is the model for doughboy (military personnel) is not supported by any of the sources consulted. See the OED for possible etymologies. Doughboy is attested, however, by the OED as slang for (1). Common compounds: adobe brick, adobe block, adobe house.
        Alternate forms: adabe, adaube, adaubi, adobey, adobi, adobie, adoby, 'dobe, 'dobie, dob, doba, dobbey, dobby, dobie, doby, dogie, doughboy.

  • 20 agua

    (Sp. model spelled same [ágwa] < Latin aquam 'water')
       As Blevins notes, this term may refer to water or rain. The plural aguas is the usual form for rain. No doubt the cowboy working in the borderlands among Mexicans used this term in searching for a source of drinking water for himself for the cattle under his care. Several common compounds exist, including: agua caliente or aguas calientes
    (Sp. model spelled same [ágwa] [see above] and [kaljénte] < Latin calentis; the plural agglutinated Aguascalientes is the name of a state in northern Mexico. As Carlisle observes, this compound means "literally 'hot water(s),' now a place name used to refer to many settlements in the West near Hot Springs [sic]."
