The Spanish neologism “veroño” caught my attention, a portmanteau word formed from verano + otoño: ver(ano)+(ot)oño (summer + autumn). Veroño is a masculine noun used in informal, spontaneous speech. It refers to the beginning of autumn, between the end of September and the end of October, when the days are sunny and the temperatures are still quite high, almost like summer.
