Españoladas

One language. Hundreds of ways to say the same thing.

A searchable, collaborative comparison of regional Spanish vocabulary, born from daily Mexican–Spanish misunderstandings.

The thesis

A tiny recurring confusion becomes useful public infrastructure when the comparison is structured and contribution is effortless.

Each row is a concept and each column is a country or region. Visitors can search, filter, rearrange and export the comparison instead of reading a static glossary.

The catalogue contains more than 300 entries and accepts contributions without registration. The underlying reference remains open and inspectable.
