EN: Advance payment; cash advance
The "vale" you get from your boss when petsa de peligro hits you hard. It's the money that saves you mid-month but also makes you cry on the actual payday. The adelanto is the financial equivalent of a movie spoiler: you get the good part now, but the ending (your payslip) is less exciting.
From Spanish "adelanto" (advance, progress).
Specifically refers to an advance on salary or payment.
