In Uruguay we use 'pajita'. Be careful with using 'paja', it means a dirty expression.

We say pajita, we do not use paja for that.

I've also been taught 'canita' down here in Andalucia from the cooks in the 'instituto' along with 'pajita'. And thus ends my only post outside of my blogs in the forum! :0) Definitely been a while.

I wouldn't but what do I know. Perhaps pajita.

{There are too many other "offbeat" meanings if you know what I mean.}

No, excuse but I don't know what you mean. Please explain and be very explicit. I'll pour myself a little wine while I wait for your answer. Please don't take the word little literally.Thank you. - 00769608, Oct 30, 2009
