Toalla
This is a discussion thread for the Daily Spanish Word for July 8, 2008
toalla - feminine noun (la) - towel. Look up toalla in the dictionary Pásame las toallas húmedas para que le cambie el pañal al bebé. Give me the wet wipes so I can change the baby's diaper.

To throw in the towel means renunciar.
Is albornoz the common word for terry cloth? I haven't heard it before looking it up in the dictionary today.

En latinoamérica (por lo menos lo que sé de latinoamérica) se usa
bata en ves de albornoz. Entonces, que es la palabra para la tela de toallas y algunos albornoces que absorba bien agua que nosotros decimos terry cloth towel o mas raramente Turkish cloth/Turkish towel? Un otro diccionario dice tela de toalla, y eso hace sentido.

I think the only word is the one you found. In England they say terry towelling for terry cloth.
