The really funny thing was, if you happened to click the dictionary link, the only meaning given for mapache is raccoon.


Groundhog is marmota, Marsopa.

DAVID, you made me look like a fool today... hahaha. Not really but kinda. I was talking today with my Argentine gf and I use the word mapache (thinking it meant skunk) and she tells me it doesn't mean skunk, skunk is zorrillo. However, she didnt know the English word for mapache. She just kept telling me it is Pocahontas' pet from the disney movie. But as I am a bit rusty with my old disney movies, I didn't know what she was refering to. So I looked it up.



At least, we both ended up learning something out of the situation.
