Overview
- Presented in Madrid by director Santiago Muñoz Machado with lexicography chief Elena Zamora, the electronic DLE 23.8.1 delivers about 330 additions and revisions now live on dle.rae.es as a preview of the 24th edition slated for 2026.
- New items capture digital culture and colloquial usage—milenial, loguearse, simpa, turismofobia and bocachancla—along with expressions such as juguete roto and foto de familia.
- The Academy formalizes its treatment of borrowings by marking unadapted foreign terms in italics, recording entries like streaming, hashtag, gif and mailing as “extranjerismos crudos.”
- Scientific and technical vocabulary expands with gravitón, termoquímico, exoesqueleto, autoconsumo, narcoléptico, ovulatorio, engelamiento and engelante.
- Updated senses and regional voices are codified, including brutal meaning magnificent, chapar meaning to close a business, eco for ultrasound, and country‑specific uses like chamaco, morro, pagadiós and cubetera.
