The standard word is "judías verdes", but in Mexico they are called "ejotes".

I have a question... doesn't "Judías" mean "Jew/Jewish"? So it is esentially saying "the green jews"?
I think the word for Jew is Judio/a not Judías... might make for an interesting mistake in a grocery store though.. jaja
"Do you have any green jews left?"

If they are Jewish women they are "judias", and nobody laughs about it. - mountaingirl123, Jan 6, 2010
Yes, that is why accents are so important! - drvicente, Nov 12, 2011

Yes but it is not uncommon just like in English that words spelled the same have different meanings. - drvicente, Nov 12, 2011

Habichuelas son (string beans) y guisantes son (peas) en la mayor parte de Latinoamerica. Creo las judias verdes son de España. It is green beans alla.

In Mexico and Honduras "chícharos" are peas...there are so many regional variations! - mountaingirl123, Nov 12, 2011
