Wiktionary examples

These source excerpts show how gótico appears in context. They illustrate usage; the definition above remains the entry’s reference meaning.

  1. Lo mismo puede decirse respecto a la "fara", expresión con la cual los burgundos y los longobardos -un pueblo de origen gótico y otro de origen herminónico o altoalemán- designaban poco más o menos, si no con exactitud, lo mismo que se llamaba "genealogía" en el "Derecho Consuetudinario Alamanno".
  2. El cielo estaba sombrío, no vislumbraba una estrella, silbaba lúgubre el viento, y allá en el aire, cual negras fantasmas, se dibujaban las torres de las iglesias, y del gótico castillo las altísimas almenas, donde canta o reza acaso temeroso el centinela.
