DÍA DE LOS MUERTOS 2 November, All Souls' Day, called the Día de los Muertos elsewhere in the Spanish-speaking world and Día de los Difuntos in Spain, is the day when Christians throughout the Spanish-speaking world traditionally honour their dead. In Mexico the festivities are particularly spectacular with a week-long festival, starting on 1 November, in which Christian and ancient pagan customs are married. 1 November itself is for children who have died, while 2 November is set aside for adults. Families meet to take food, flowers and sweets in the shape of skeletons, coffins and crosses to the graves of their loved ones. In Spain people celebrate the Día de los Difuntos by taking flowers to the cemetery. 20-N N 20-N is commonly used as shorthand to refer to the anniversary of General Franco's death on 20 November 1975. Every year supporters of the far right hold a commemorative rally in Madrid's Plaza de Oriente, the scene of many of Franco's speeches to the people.

18 sacaton

( zacatón [sakatón], augmentative of zacate 'hay; fodder' < Nahu-atl zacatl)

   Bentley: 1863.

   A southwestern plant ( Sporobolus wrightii) sometimes used as forage. The OED indicates that the term refers to various species of the genera Sporobolus and Epicampes. Santamaria glosses it as the common name of various wild grasses, including Muelembergia disticophylla and S. wrightii, used for making an industrial fiber. It generally grows in long, rigid rootstalks with leaves. In southeastern Mexico it is the primary vegetation on the plains or savannahs, where it grows as a shrub or in isolated groups of trees.

    Also called pajón (Mexico), bear grass (USA), it is commonly used as forage for cattle.

    Alternate forms: sacate, sacatone, zacaton.

   Islas and the DRAE both note that fiber from the plant's roots is used for brooms and brushes. Cobos references zacatón as "bunch grass or porcupine grass."

Vocabulario Vaquero > sacaton
19 zacate

(Sp. model spelled same [sakáte] < Náhuatl zacatl 'hay; fodder')

OED: 1848. A general term in the Southwest for forage grass. Santamaría references it as a generic name for various creeping grasses that cover the fields of Mexico and serve as forage for animals. It also refers to some cyperaceous plants that are similar to the grasses. Islas also defines it as a corn plant that is dried once the ears have been cut off.
