" the Spanish language tremendous opportunities, in addition to creating or selecting alternatives, and only one of them is the adaptation of our spelling system for words borrowed from other languages. The evidence of widespread use of anglicism " selfi " made us think that abandoning our last Council apply autophotography ", it would be good to offer an adapted version of that, also in this case, will not create issues from the standpoint of pronunciation or graphic reproduction, " explained the choice of linguists Muller.
