Like recently where I am, it’s pushing “anticuado” as “outdated”. Except that is obviously “Antiquated”.

... but isn't that what it is?

like if you say "paso un anciana en el camino" it doesn't mean you passed an Ancient, you just passed by an old woman.

    I mean, yes but also anciana would kind of be the feminine word for "ancient/old person." Ancient feels a bit derogatory like "really old" but that comes down to cultural differences than grammar.
