How do you say "stash" in Spanish?

Question

Context: stash, meaning a stash of money.

Is "el escondrijo" meaning hiding place a translation for the slang - stash?

Answer 1

Alijo o montoncito de dinero escondido.

montoncito...I love it. :) - Izanoni1, Feb 25, 2011

Do "guaca" or "hucha" convey the same idea, or do they not have a stealth factor? - cristalino, Feb 25, 2011

Answer 2

Escondrijo and Escondite would be the place where you stash or hide something away.

Alijo would refer to a stash but I have usually seen it used to refer to something that might be considered as contraband such as drugs. I suppose that you might say "atajo del dinero," but again, it would probably bring with it certain connotations.

I think that maybe you could use reserva escondida, but I have to admit that I can't recall having seen this expression used specifically for money. Usually, it is used more along the lines of a "hidden stockpile" or "hidden reserve."

Maybe you could simply use dinero escondido as in encontraron dinero escondido dentro de uno de sus zapatos (they found a stash of money/money stashed inside one of his shoes).

Hi Ismael. I don't think the OP is looking for answers after 7 years. - 00fac92a, Sep 13, 2017

Answer 4

Hmmm....I like "guardaditos." Let's wait and see what others have to say.

Is this a form of "guardador", keeper? Thanks for helping!! - bandit51jd, Feb 25, 2011
