Aceite de oliva. Just aceite should be enough since the word cames from the Arabic word Zeite (oil) of Zeitunes(olives), so it could not come from sunflowwer(girasol), corn(maiz), canola(colza), etc., etc. But to explain it to regular people is another story. rolleyes

Ciguvilaro, just saying aceite could get you motor oil. Probably doesnt taste as good.
