are there spanish words that beginning with W

Question

Words beginning with the letter W

Answer 1

There certainly are!

My favorite is whiskería, meaning a bar specializing in whiskey. =]

Answer 2

At one time the letters K and W were not even considered part of the Spanish alphabet. I don´t know if the RAE has now included them now or not, but they only pertain to foreign words.

"Whiskería" is a spanglish word made from the English word "whiskey."

We can use any English word and add ería to it and invent a spanglish word, but it won´t be Spanish, ie: Housería (realestate office), troquería (pick-up truck sales), toiletería (toilet sales), hairía (barber shop), marketería (stock market), pigería (dirty place).

Yes, even "lunchería" is spanglish (another word for nonsense).

Answer 3

All of them that I found by searching the dictionaries here on SD are words borrowed from English.

Maybe a native speaker can help more.
