There are many "Spanglish" words. One is jeans. I have also had several conversations with Spaniards who call each other pretty boy as an insult.
There are also a lot of misappropriated words in Spanish from English in modern Spanish slang. A good example is "crack". If a Spanish person says "Has hecho un crack" it does not mean that you have broken something, but that you have discovered a clever solution to a problem.
Spanish also absorbs words from the places that they conquered or had frequent dealings with. Words like "aguacate" (avocado) and "chocolate" come from the Nahuatl (Aztec) words "aguacatl" and "xocolatl". Words like "algodón" (cotton) and "aceite" (olive oil) come from the Arabic words "al-qoton" (القطن) and "az-zeitun" (الزيتون ).
