That one perception may be just cultural or regional. It may be just cool to be lazy, and emit an air of condescendence if one uses one's native language consistently.
Pullear, deployar are ridiculous and lazy.
For instance, deploy has its roots in the military term: to place and equip troops in a battlefield. The Spanish words desplegar (v.) and despliegue (n.) have existed for ages with identical meaning, and in common use in the 90s in IT.
- 1maginary 6y agoHmm, I may be misreading your comments in this thread but it sounds like you're not okay with languages simply... evolving? You are aware that importing words is a thing, right? Even if equivalent words already exist. It's perfectly normal and even healthy for a language to do so. To me, pullear and deployar are just a lot more clear and there's no ambiguity. "Desplegar" would not be very meaningful to me in the context of my work. It's all about clarity in my mind and condescension really has nothing to do with it.
