Sp. is not an abbreviation for a level of usage. "sl." = slang; "colloq." = colloquial; and "dial." = dialect. "Sp." can stand for "Spanish" in the derivation of a word.

Many issues arose, especially in the Third Estate, asking for changes and reforms. The voting also caused problems. Originally, there were only three votes, so that the 1st and 2nd Estate could outvote the 3rd.
