Are there any Spanish words that Nicaraguans use that Mexicans do not?

Question

Well I am looking for some words that are used only in Nicaragua but not by Mexicans. Or I'm looking at least for some words that are the same but used with a different meaning.

Ex: pinche in Mexican is used as worthless but in Nicaragua it is used as someone who does not like to spend money.

Answer 1

I'm not sure about words used only in Nicaragua but I do know that there are many words that Mexicans use that just aren't used in other countries. For example, a Mexican would probably say betabel instead of remolacha, desarmador instead of desatornillador, alberca instead of piscina. There's also a ton of Mexican slang.

Answer 2

Yes.

Burrito!

Answer 3

I know some slang.... Jaña is slang for girlfriend where novia is formal for Spanish. Gangster is pandillero where in Spanish I think it's gánster. Hope this helps!
