For example in the game Hombre there is the reversal of order between red and black suits, reflecting the reversal of order between Latin long (Swords/Batons) and short (Cups/Coins) suits; and the Ace of Clubs is called 'Baste' (club) and the Ace of Spades 'Espadille' (sword).
In English too the name Spades is probably rooted in Spadille (sword)* and 'Club' is a translation of 'Baste/Baton'.
*"1. E. sp. espadilla „diminutif de spada, epee, le pique etant marque par une epee sur les cartes espagnoles".
In Portuguese French suit names are also derived from those of Spanish decks. Thus the French suit of coeurs (Hearts) is called Copas (cups), with variations "taça" (cups) and "coração" (hearts). The French suit of carreaux is called Ouros (gold), but also "losango" (diamond shape, lozenge) or "diamante" (diamonds), or, informally, "balãozinho" (little balloons) and "Doce de Leite" (sweet (condensed) milk). The French suit of piques is called Espadas (swords), with variations "espadilha" (sprat), "seta" (arrow), "lança" (spear), or informally, "punhal"(dagger) or "coração negro" (black heart). Trèfles are called "Paus" (club, wood, stick, penis), also "trevo" (clover) or "pé de pinto" (standing chick (col. prick, cock, penis)).
The most common elemental attributions in Portuguese cartomancy are:
COPAS Cups - Hearts - WATER
PAUS Sticks - Clubs FIRE
OUROS Coins - Diamonds EARTH
ESPADAS Swords - Spades AIR
