It is used in rural subdialects to describe the protection of sensitive plants or roots before the winter frost.
- Plugged — A regional or archaic participial or adjectival form (with phonetic insertion) for the term 'astupat'; well-covered, sealed, blocked, or plugged with a stopper, lid, or layer of soil. It describes the state of an object, container, or opening that has been obstructed to stop the passage of air or liquids, or to protect the contents.

In certain isolated idioms, it can also describe the action of fitting the elements of a straw or leaf covering over vegetable provisions.
- Asturian — Feminine form of the adjective 'asturic' (a rare variant for Asturian), meaning belonging or relating to the ancient Celtic tribe of the Astures or their territory in the northern Iberian Peninsula. As a feminine noun in historical philology, it can describe the vernacular idiom variant of the region or a Celtic-type short sword used by ancient warriors.
- Dizziness — A rare lexical regionalism used as a phonetic variant or degraded semantic form for words describing a state of dizziness, vertigo, mild mental confusion, or transient daze.

- To empower to own — To cause a person or a group to assume an identity, a responsibility, or a decision; to guide an individual through psychological or social techniques toward the full and conscious internalization of a state of affairs.
