¿no saben que, en Puerto Rico, la palabra por "snowcone (shaved ice)" es "piragua"?
el prefijo "pir-" proviene de "pirámide"....y "agua" es water (en inglés), por supuesto. Pensé que este era interesante.

The prefix "pir-" comes from the Spanish "pirámide"....and "agua" means water, of course. I thought this was cool.
