The interviews inquired knowledge, definition, duration and frequency of 40 words; the results of the systematization confronted with literature data allowed us to establish some generalized conclusions that lead us to say that most of the investigated terms are part of the Ecuadorian linguistic identity because despite being employed in the rest of the Hispanic population are identified with our culture and even have their own meanings.
