La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que trasladando el sentido literal de la costumbre de esconder los "huevos de Pascua" en algunas culturas, se comenzó a emplear la metáfora en el mundo de la programación (sistemas operativos, videojuegos) para hacer referencia a mensajes, señales o detalles escondidos que sorprenden a los usuarios. [...] La traducción literal del anglicismo, "huevo de Pascua", que se ve ocasionalmente, no es una opción recomendable, ya que la metáfora en español puede no ser comprensible para todos los hablantes. 1, record 2, Spanish, - se%C3%B1al%20escondida
