• My dictionary gives "arándano" for blueberry and "arándano agrio" for cranberry. - LaBurra Jan 25, 2010
• well, I looked it up and I kind've got many different results, but I saw somewhere that a blueberry was arándano azul....but then others said it wasn't, so, I guess I'll just say it can be either! - hlsbookworm Jan 25, 2010
• I think "arándano azul" makes more sense. Maybe "arándano" is the whole group of related fruits: cranberries, blueberries, bilberries, whortleberries... Maybe there are regional usages. Anyway, we are learning something new! - LaBurra Jan 25, 2010
• And thanks for the daily A to Z "fix". - LaBurra Jan 25, 2010
• so, I guess since this is still being finished and is still on the hot list (since I posted it late yesterday) I shouldn't post one for today..... - hlsbookworm Jan 26, 2010
