How do you say faucet... grifo? What is grifa then? I am not confident about the interpretation in the dictionary here. Can a faucet be "grifa?" I thought I heard "grifa" used differently than what I see here...

Also, if grifo is where the water comes out, what's the best way to say "knobs", like the handles to turn the faucet on and off? - pilipina, Feb 17, 2010
hmmm well to refer to the things that open the tap, we call it "llave de paso". - Zizoun, Feb 17, 2010
