In legal contexts, the term "fideicomiso definido" is not part of an idiomatic expression per se but is crucial in understanding the specific type of trust being discussed. However, in everyday language, the term "fideicomiso" is often used in idiomatic expressions to convey trust, reliability, or confidence.

The word "fideicomiso" comes from the Latin "fideicommissum," which is composed of "fides" (faith, trust) and "committere" (to entrust). "Definido" comes from the Latin "definitus," meaning defined or determined. Therefore, "fideicomiso definido" refers to a clear and specified trust arrangement.
