In this research, we rescued some interjections that have been or are being used at the local
or regional Castilian of Peru, and other interjections typical Peruvian General Castilian.
The collected words for this paper express surprise, disgust, rejection, disapproval, and
cold, among other meanings. We seek to establish their possible etymon and localization.
Obtaining these interjections has been possible by reading different literary works of
recognized writers like Alegria, Lopez Albujar, Palma and others who do not have the
literary recognition of the above, but who contribute by picking up regional idioms. It is
noteworthy to point out that the corpus was taken from my personal contribution to the
database of the Peruvian Society of Lexical Studies.
