Is there a site on the web that lists the different spanish words for different countries? ...

for ex) string beans are judías verdes in Spain, ejotes in Mexico, vainas in Peru, porotos verdes in Chile, and habichuelas in most of Latinoamerica.

Hello. If there is one I haven't found it. Let me know if you find one.

In Nicaragua, it is: frijoles verdes.

Estuve buscando sitios y creo que este fue el más completo que encontré. Yo lo he usado ya varias veces y es de gran utilidad: http://www.asihablamos.com/. Y no olvides el diccionario de la Real Academia Española(RAE): http://www.rae.es/RAE/Noticias.nsf/Home?ReadForm.
