Fala dos arxinas



Fala dos arxinas or Verbo dos arginas (in Spanish, jerga de los canteros) (Galician, "argot of stonecutters") is the name of an argot employed by stonecutters in the Spanish region of Galicia, particularly in the area of Pontevedra. The fala dos arxinas incorporated Basque words into its vocabulary (hargin itself is "stonecutter"), a linguistic practice employed by other traveling professional groups of Castile (see Basque language).
