Damnificado
This is a discussion thread for the Daily Spanish Word for October 29, 2009
damnificado (masculine noun (el)) — victim, affected person. Look up damnificado in the dictionary Entre los damnificados por la inundación habÃa mucha gente que perdió todas sus pertenencias. Among those affected by the flood, there were many people who lost all their belongings.

Very interesting.
Out of curiosity, how would one say 'doomed' or 'damned' as in a person that is doomed /damned from a religious/damnation/pre-determined fate or 'fatalistic' point of view?

Do you mean I should have asked about being 'condemned' or '(pre)destined' instead?

I'm glad that Laura asked the question. I have been contemplating this term and its similarity to the word "damned" in English. The relationship seems to be interesting ... I may need to chase down the etymology. Does anyone have a good website that discusses the etymology of Spanish words? Do you think I'd be able to understand these discussions? Thanks!

Not yet, no. But I do have a large Latin dictionary on my bookshelf. I also have a book of Spanish etymologies, but this one wasn't in it.
