Here I refer as crazy Spanish vowels to those vowels that are not in accordance with cognates in other languages, particularly Romance:
Sp. asamblea, Port. assembléia, It. assemblea, Eng. assembly, Fr. assemblée
Sp. asesinar, Port. assassinar, It. assassinare, Eng. assassinate, Fr. assassiner
Sp. vivir, Port. viver, It. vivere
I'm sure other words will occur to me eventually. It seemed that I had many more yesterday when I thought of starting this post.
