En el episodio de esta semana te hablo de la palabra abracadabra. Palabra reconocida en muchos idiomas y asociada con la magia, pero, ¿sabes su origen? ¿Y los diferentes usos que se le han dado a lo largo del tiempo? Te lo cuento todo, o mejor dicho, casi todo, ya que abracadabra es una palabra misteriosa, y su origen y usos parece que también.
