The Royal Spanish Academy (RAE) and the Association of Academies of the Spanish Language (ASALE) have released the 24th edition of the Dictionary of the Spanish Language (DLE). This edition is the first designed primarily as a digital work, containing nearly 100,000 articles and over 6,000 updates.

The new edition incorporates regional linguistic diversity, including ten terms from Honduras contributed by the Honduran Academy of Language, such as “motagüense” and “nenequear”. Additionally, the update includes 100 Cubanisms selected by experts, such as “asere” and “cocotaxi”, to recognize the diversity of Spanish spoken in Cuba.
