The first major American opposition to British policy came in 1765 after Parliament passed the Stamp Act, a taxation measure designed to raise revenues for a standing British army in America. Under the banner of “no taxation without representation,” colonists convened the Stamp Act Congress in October 1765 to vocalize their opposition to the tax. With its enactment in November, most colonists called for a boycott of British goods, and some organized attacks on customhouses and homes of tax collectors.
After months of protest in the colonies, Parliament finally voted to repeal the Stamp Act in March 1766. Most colonists continued to quietly accept British rule until Parliament’s enactment of the Tea Act in 1773, a bill designed to save the faltering British East India Company by greatly lowering its tea tax and granting it a monopoly on the American tea trade. The low tax allowed the company to undercut even tea smuggled into America by Dutch traders, and many colonists viewed the act as another example of taxation tyranny. Hope this helps!

the word cafeteria comes from a the Spanish word cafeteria which means coffee shop is is a cultural diffusion or no
EleoNora [17]

Hello! I'll gladly go over this question as a native Spanish speaker.

It's very common to see Spanish words that were adapted or transitioned from an English word. Cafeteria would be one of them. Another eample would be tanque = Tank. This is the result of a bad pronunciation or adaptation from the original word which would be the English one.

You can definitely find many examples like that one, and notice how Spanish cultures mix English words with their Spanish and adapt them until they become official words in dictionaries.
