3 Chihuahua
(Sp. model spelled same [t∫iwáwa] (a place name))1) Southwest: 1930. A mild expletive common in the Southwest. Also Ay, Chihuahua. Santamaría references Ay, Chihuahua as an exclamation used as a euphemism for chingar 'to copulate.' Galván also references Chihuahua as an interjection of varying intensity of meaning. He says that in Chicano Spanish it can mean everything from 'Goodness gracious!' to 'Hell!'2) West: 1936. A spur with a large rowel, often intricately decorated with silver. Known as a Chihuahua spur.3) According to Hendrickson, a slang term used on the frontier for "a little town with a large number of saloons and dancehalls."See also Chihuahua town below.4) A freighting wagon or large cart with two solid, wooden wheels.Also Chihuahua cart. No Spanish sources reference meanings (2), (3), and (4), but it is probable that (2) and (4) originated in the state of Chihuahua, Mexico. -

12 campomoche
( campamocha [kampamót∫a]; of uncertain origin, probably from Nahuatl campa-mo-chan 'where your house is' via Spanish). California: 1919. Bentley references this term as an insect known as a 'praying mantis' ( Mantis religiosa), so called because its folded wings resemble a clerical garment and its front two legs resemble hands clasped in prayer. The insect is also known as the "praying insect," "devil's horse." The term campomoche is also applied to a smaller green or gray-colored insect with a sticklike body, sometimes called a "walking-stick." The walking-stick is difficult to distinguish from the plants that it inhabits, and it is said to be fatal to cattle when they ingest it along with grass. Islas confirms that the insect is poisonous and kills numerous cattle in Chihuahua, Mexico, when they accidentally eat it. Santamaría references campamocha as an orthopterous insect of the mantis family that deposits its eggs in a multicolored capsule that is also called a campamocha. He provides the genus and species Stagmomantis limbata. Cobos indicates that the campamocha is the common praying mantis. Islas and Cabrera describe a different insect that blends in with foliage because of its sticklike appearance. -
13 casa grande
(Sp. model spelled same [kása] 'house' and [grande] 'large' < Latin granáis 'big')1) Carlisle: 1850. Referenced by Carlisle and Hendrickson as a large house.2) Clark: 1910s. On a Spanish-American ranch or hacienda, the owner's home. According to Adams, this is where "all the hands gathered for fun and frolic." Bentley notes that it was without exception painted white and generally had a large veranda along the entire front. He also indicates that it was the "hub of the universe" for the laborers of the ranch. Although this term was more common in earlier times, it continues to be widely recognized in the Southwest. Santamaría says that a servant or laborer of a ranch or hacienda refers to the owner's home as the casa grande or casa principal.3) Clark: 1840s. Clark glosses it as "an extensive pueblo in the Southwest." Not referenced in Spanish sources, but common in toponyms in the Southwest and Mexico: Casa Grande, Arizona, and Nuevo Casas Grandes, Chihuahua, for example. -
14 colonche
(Sp. model spelled same [kolón,t∫e], of uncertain origin; possibly from Nahuatl coloa 'to twist or turn')California: 1846. Referenced in the DARE as "a fermented drink made from the tuna plant." The DRAE glosses it as an intoxicating drink made from the juice of the red prickly pear plant mixed with sugar. Santamaría and Cabrera indicate that it is a type of tepache. Islas says that it is a regional drink in San Luis Potosí, Mexico, but Santamaría indicates that it is consumed principally by the Tarahumara and Yaqui Indians in Chihuahua and Sonora, Mexico, and by American Indians in Arizona and California.Alternate form: calinche. No doubt a few buckaroos got drunk on such a concoction when other preferred alcoholic drinks were unavailable. -
15 Mexican town
West: 1930. A barrio occupied primarily by Mexicans. See also Sonora town, Chihuahua town. -
16 teguas
(Sp. model spelled same [tégwas] < Náhuatl tehuan 'that which accompanies others')Bentley: 1889. Originally, lightweight rawhide ankle-length moccasins that lace in the front. Santamaría indicates that this term may be spelled various ways in Mexico ( teguas, tejas, tejuanas, texas), and refers to a nation of Indians that inhabit Baja California and New Mexico (in English, Tewa). The term was subsequently generalized to other footwear, such as huarache sandals used by the Indians. The sandals are now worn by others besides the Tewa Indians and the term is known throughout northwestern Mexico. Sobarzo indicates that the sandals were worn by the Apaches. He suggests that the name comes from a Sonoran Indian language, possibly from the Cahita word begua 'leather; calfskin.' Islas notes that the sandals are worn principally by peasants, especially those in Chihuahua, Mexico.
