One Word

The only word I know in Spanish is the word for seagull - 'gaviota.'


The matters of conversations with my Mecixan sister-in-law and when ordering quesadillas at Poquito Más become somewhat short, strange and narrow.
- Tony: Gaviota.
- Sister-in-law: ... Que?
- Tony: Gaviota.
- Poquito Mas: No! It's Chicken !!!
Not really.

I'm just out of ideas, found my old shots of a Sydney seagull and needed a reason to post them.


But it is almost true. The only other word I know in Spanish is 'tejon.'

It means 'badger'.
