Cartón
 
This is a discussion thread for the Daily Spanish Word for May 3, 2008

cartón -masculine noun (el), cardboard, carton. Look up cartón in the dictionary

Tráeme la caja de cartón donde guardamos los cartones apachurrados de leche.
Bring me the cardboard box where we keep the flattened milk cartons.

I say espachurrados...:)

Interesante, ¿no se entiende el verbo apachurrar en España?

Iris May 03, 2008 07:34 AM

Sí, yo lo entiendo, pero no lo uso. De hecho pensaba que era incorrecto.

Tomisimo May 03, 2008 07:42 AM

Hmmm, acabo de preguntar bien y en Mexico usan sólo apachurrar y no espachurrar.

En el DRAE, ambos-- apachurrar y espachurrar-- son variantes de despachurrar

If anybody had told me despachurrar was a real word I would have thought they were joking. I learn something new everyday.

Me too. I never knew espachurrar and despachurrar even existed.
