Fandango / by Anne Ylvisaker

Language changes fast in the internet age. The web is no longer simply the sticky home of E.B. White’s Charlotte and twitter and tweet are rarely about bird vocals anymore. Fandango has become synonymous with online movie ticket sales, until today when the word showed up in the Monterey Herald under Fourth of July celebrations.

At the Cooper-Molera adobe there will be historic demonstrations, rope making, leather crafts and fandango.

From Chambers Dictionary:

Fandango an energetic Spanish dance, or music for it, in ¾ time.
