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.

Espero que disfrutes el episodio. Si lo haces, por favor no te olvides de dejar una valoración al podcast en la plataforma desde la que lo estás escuchando. ¡Eso me ayuda muchísimo!
