How do you say "to mop"?

Question

She mops the floor.

Answer 1

I found this on another site:

En Cuba, se dice trapear, pasar un trapo, pasar un trapeador.

En México, se dice tallar o trapear también.

En Puerto Rico, se dice mapear o pasar el mapo.

En España, se dice fregar

I also saw pasar la fregona (fregona = mop)

Evidently "to mop" is a complicated term in Spanish.

Add to that: in Costa Rica you"pasar el trapo" (with a "trapo de piso") and in Nicaragua you "lampasear" (with a "lampazo"). - Puffy_Taco, Sep 24, 2010

Answer 2

The PR version is "spanglish." "Trapear" comes from "Trapo" (Rag), and si considered correct in the Americas. "Fregar" is "Scrub." "Fregar" in Mexico is also an idiom, "To bother."
