ORIGIN OF Flashea
This word comes from the English word flash which means flash. It is a hybrid of the English word flash ‘to focus, to transmit quickly’ plus the suffix ear which means in our computer language “to illegally modify the operating system of a computer”.
Also after 2014 the postverbal term flashing is documented.
Apparently it is a word that is used today to refer to various meanings depending on the country where you are.
For example, in Argentina it means to hallucinate, to rave, to speak something incoherent, something crazy, out of the ordinary. Elsewhere it can mean to get confused, to interpret something incorrectly. It can also represent a surprising situation, object or state, out of the ordinary.
Likewise, it means something crazy and impossible that can happen. As well as to imagine, to fantasize, to think of something that cannot happen. It also refers to someone who is very surprised, hypnotized, crazy or drugged.
