1. Retro: The term "retro" originated from the Latin word "retro", meaning "backwards" or "in the past". It started being used in English in the 1970s to refer to things that imitated or evoked the styles, fashion, or aesthetics of the past. It is often associated with nostalgia for previous eras.
2. Spects: "Spects" is not a recognized word in English. It seems to be a misspelling or misunderstanding of the word "specs", which is a shortened form of "specifications". In this context, it might refer to a visual representation or examination of past events or phenomena.
