Spanish[edit]
Etymology[edit]
- From Latin lactārius, corresponding to leche + -era.
- (police van): Because the first vans used by the Spanish police in the 1970s were also identical models to those used for delivering milk. Another reason is that the riot police officers came out of the vans distributing leches (“bumps, blows, smacks”).[1]
