how do you spell white girl heard from two mexicans 2 diff things guerra and huerra

Question

i want to know how to spell white girl in spanish i get confused if its spelled huerra or guerra heard it from 2 diff people and they both dissagree idk how to spell it lol

Answer 1

Actually "guerra" and "guera" would both be pronounced "g-e-r-a"... not "who-e-ra" which is the correct pronunciation. Also "guerra" means "war" and "guera", hose. I have a Spanish dictionary that is 25 yrs old that says it is "Huera". It may also be spelled "Juera". Anything else seems like a modern twisting of the words. I live in a predominantly Spanish speaking area and have NEVER heard it pronounced with the "g" (and I've heard it a lot).

Answer 2

I believe what you are looking for is guera. Guerra means war or conflict. If you look in our dictionary, however, it defines guera as a blonde.

Answer 4

I think neither of those are correct. The correct is güera. You usually won't find it written like this because not many people know how to type the "ü".
