Despacio

In Spanish, the word despacio means 'slowly' (an essential request when trying to converse with native Spanish speakers).  The roots of this word are the Latin de meaning 'away, down' and spatium meaning 'interval, time, extent; race course, lap, circuit; space; area, expanse'.  I just thought that was cool.
