Horrorosous

Horrorosous: adjective. The word horrorosous is one of the first words with which Spanish enriched the English language. The adjective, coined by Spaniards and Latin Americans struggling with learning English, at first denoted the state of something being horrible or horrifying. However, as time went on and the word was assimilated into English, it gained the meaning of "something so horrible or horrifying that it might as well have originated from a horror film."
