What's the meaning of the -azo suffix? Regarding golpazo, I think it is more common in Spain to say golpetazo. |

Basque words in Spanish vocabulary Great list! I wish the RAE online dictionary had the option to look up words by etymology, or regionalisms. I also didn't include in my response some words which RAE includes in the dictionary but which are related to the Basque culture, like aizcolari, pelotari, batúa... |

How formal is cuán? What are the informal alternatives? No, I don't have any sources. I have always heard it as cuán, but it may well be incorrect. I'll edit my answer. |

Spanish words for cap, cover, lid, etc Yes, but the dictionary doesn't always include all uses of a word. By the way, when I wrote screwed on, I meant "enroscado", but I'm not sure it's the best choice. These are called "tapones" in Spain, and are certainly not inserted on the bottle. |
