noun, masculine/ˈdixe/plural: dijes
adorns, locket; amulet, charm
Synonyms: relicario, amuleto
Derived from dije (“I said”), an inflection of the verb decir. The intermediate senses appear to have been 'tall tale, gossip' → 'trifle, thingy' → 'trinket'. Cf. the noun chisme, which has all of these senses.
