Spanish term

labor ancia

Spanish to English Other General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters Spain
This seems to be a typo in a text about a brief meeting between government officials. I'm wondering if the intended words or meaning is clear to anyone? Many thanks in advance.

Dijo que, si en algún momento, había habido “pequeñas diferencias no habían sido de labor ancia: Palabritas, nada más”.

Puede ser una errata si es un ocr Es una posibilidad
Labor
Import
La L, i
La a, m
La b, p
La t se pierde
Pero labor ancia da coincidencias en latín
Y jmf no ha dicho si es un ocr o un texto original
En otros kudoz los textos que traducía tenían más de 100 años
Eso me hace pensar que puede ser un latinismo en desuso.

Las coincidencias en latin Queria dejar sólo las coincidencias en latín y añadirlas como referencia
Pero desde el móvil no parece posible

no me he resistido a abrir un kudoz en latín para ver si alguien da una explicación

quizá sólo es una coincidencia pero creo que puede ser latín

Thank you all so much It's really helpful to get feedback on these head scratchers! I guess it could refer to predecessors, but it seems a bit of a stretch in context. I will probably insert the inferred translation in brackets and add a note that "labor ancia" is an unknown phrase. Thanks again

There's no way this is Latin. "Labor ancia" is just two random words that make no sense when placed together, and the same goes for "work progenitors".
neilmac Jul 30, 2021:
Google translate ... of "labor ancia" from Latin to English offers "work progenitors", which could be taken to mean something which doesn't call for a lot of work. I'm just spitballing here…
neilmac Jul 30, 2021:
My take Without pinpointing the exact typo, from the context the meaning seems to be "no biggie"... "small differences of little importance: the odd word here and there, nothing more.”
