When I was first learning Spanish I always thought it was strange that Spanish only had one word for cookies (biscuit in BrE?) and crackers. To me these two foods are very different and deserve to have their own word.

David, we have our own word for cracker in Spanish, which is... cracker.
Alfonso, los crackers son cuadrados y salados, como pan... Otro significado de galleta: -Como no te calles te doy una galleta/torta/leche y otra más que no digo porque suena fatal.

Here's a sample of cookies, or galletas dulces, como son conocidas en EEUU and Mexico.
And these are crackers (US) or galletas saladas (Mexico)

No sabÃa que se usaba cracker en español. Creo que no se entendrÃa en México. En cuanto al dicho, nunca antes lo habÃa visto.

I have heard it, but it is usually referred to as "galleta de cinco picos", which is hand, and means a "slap".
"To voy a dar una galleta de cinco picos"...sounds kind of cruel, but it is used. gomey |

En España también distinguimos entre dulce y salado. Decimos: galleta dulce y galleta salada.

Yes, gomey! I have heard this, without the "cinco picos", as "Si no te calles te voy a dar una galleta" or "un galletazo". Watching this wasn't pretty either, as you might imagine!
