That's Italian, in Spanish it's Derecha and izquierda.

That would be "destra" and "sinistra", actually. "diestra" sounds like something made up by an American LARPing as an Italian

Never heard a Spanish person use diestra or siniestra on a day to day basis. I assume that's like destra e sinistra in Portuguese (my native language) that are very rare synonyms used when someone wants to sound pretentious.

I never said it was common.
