Different Day, Different Month!
The equivalent of April Fools’ Day in the Spanish-speaking world falls on a different day—and to be more precise in a different month. In the Spanish-speaking world is more related to its omnipresent Catholic tradition. What a surprise, right?
Pranks on December 28th!
In Spanish-speaking countries, we play pranks (bromas) on each other on the 28th of December. In Spanish, it is called “El Dia de los Inocentes”, which is based on the traditional Catholic calendar. After the prank, we will say: ¨Pobre e inocente palomita, caíste toda redondita¨(¨Fooled ya! You fell for it)
April Fools Didn’t Catch On in Spanish?
Who knows why the April Fools tradition didn’t gain popularity in the Spanish culture but we, at least, know this: In the Spanish-speaking world, we celebrate it the same way, just on a different day. ¡Un verso sin esfuerzo!
Disclaimer: We actually know. We already mentioned that the strong Catholic tradition of December 28th (Dia de los Santos Inocentes) didn’t need a competition in April.

Romance with Romans?
So, you thought we’re called romance languages just because we roll our “R’s” when we say “romance”? Wrong! Let’s break it down: Do you know why we’re called romance languages? Got it now? No? No worries, we’ll explain.
Romantic, Romance, Romans: Unraveled
I know it’s a bit confusing to juggle words like “romantic,” “romance,” and “Romans.” They look similar, but they’ve evolved into different meanings over time through culture and history.
The word “romance” comes from the Old French term “romanz,” which referred to a type of medieval literature that focused on love. By the late 18th century, the Romantic movement solidified the meaning we now associate with the word “romantic.
Why Romance Points to Rome?
Romance languages are believed to have evolved from Latin, which is why they’re connected to Rome. Stay tuned to learn more about the differences between these terms in our upcoming articles—or maybe check out our Free Spanish Classes for April Fools in December!
Playing with Words!
We, Spanish speakers, love words as much as we love “love”–ergo romance. We love words and we play with them. Well, not only with words! Talking about romance and romantic? Check out our sagas El Sexy Chupacabras & Things Spanish People Say in the Bedroom to learn sexy words and dirty phrases in Spanish.
Sex Isn’t Really a Taboo!
Like in every culture, sex is a bit of a taboo in Spanish culture too. But we love to use puns to lighten the mood and navigate it. Naturally, Spanish puns are brimming with sexual innuendos—our way of exorcising demons and tackling human taboos. Maybe it works, maybe it’s just fun!
After all, everyone has their preferences, right? Throughout history, sex has been a tool for regulating societies across civilizations. Is it really a taboo, though? Foucault would argue otherwise.
Foollo F. Schitt’s Story
I know, you’re probably nodding your head just like my friend Foollo F. Schitt does when he says, “Theeese Spanish speakers.” But you have to see how hyped he gets when watching girls in bikinis on Univision or Telemundo. One time, I asked him, “Do you speak Spanish?” He goes, “No! But I love the Spanish culture, man!”
Yeah, right! Isn’t your name Hippocrates? My good friend Foollo F. Schitt—who’s pretty much full of it—may be a fool, but he’s definitely full of his last name. It’s not really about the Spanish language for him; it’s all about the bikini designs and tequila shots!
Go for More!
More what? Tequila? Well, did you hear that alcohol helps you speak Spanish? Well, don’t believe us! Read our section Alcohol Rhymes with Spanyol. If you like creepy stories, check our section called Legends & Folktales.
Now, let’s switch gears from our playful exploration of laughter, fun, language, sex, alcohol, and drugs—the latter not too much though—to something equally thrilling – Free Spanish Classes at Kasa De Franko!.
