tipería

== Spanish == === Etymology === Perhaps from an obsolete noun tipería, from tipo (“smartened up, dressed up”) +‎ -ería. For the lack of number agreement in spite of having adjective syntax, compare the colours café and naranja, both derived from nouns. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /tipeˈɾia/ [t̪i.peˈɾi.a] Rhymes: -ia Syllabification: ti‧pe‧rí‧a === Adjective === tipería (invariable) (El Salvador) dolled up, smartened up Synonym: tipo (El Salvador), arreglado, acicalado andar tipería ― to be dolled up el hombre más tipería que jamás conocí ― the man most obsessed with looking good I ever met === Further reading === “tipería”, in Diccionario de la lengua española [Dictionary of the Spanish Language] (in Spanish), online version 23.8.1, Royal Spanish Academy [Spanish: Real Academia Española], 15 December 2025 “tipería”, in Diccionario de americanismos [Dictionary of Americanisms] (in Spanish), Association of Academies of the Spanish Language [Spanish: Asociación de Academias de la Lengua Española], 2010
