Why doesn't this word appear in online Spanish dictionaries? What is the extent of its meaning in relation to the titles of so many tangos?
Noun sense[edit]
Although defined as an adjective in DRAE it can be used as a noun, i.e. with article and postpositive adjective, which is not possible for other Spanish adjectives, i.e. you can say una porteña lida but not un grande lindo. Matthias Buchmeier 09:01, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
