  • 21 aparejo

    (Sp. model spelled same [aparéxo] < Spanish verb aparejar 'to prepare' < Spanish prefix a- plus parejo < Latin pariculum, dimuni-tive of parem 'equal')
       SW: 1844. A type of packsaddle consisting of a large stuffed leather or canvas pad attached to a wide cinch and an exceptionally wide breeching that fits under the animal's tail. It is especially designed for awkward heavy loads and may be used on horses, mules, and other animals. Spanish sources define it both as a packsaddle or riding gear. Bentley notes this item became so common that the U.S. Army has its own official version of the aparejo. Such packsaddles were common on long trail drives.
        Alternate forms: aparayho, arapaho.

  • 22 atajo

    ( hatajo [atáxo] < verb atajar < prefix a- plus verb tajar < Latin taliare 'to cut,' meaning group that has been separated or set apart from a larger group).
       New Mexico: 1844. A string of packmules or pack horses. Bentley indicates "a typical atajo may have consisted of from fifteen to forty animals equipped with aparejos and cared for by drivers or atajaderos." Santamaría concurs. The DRAE and the VCN give "a group of livestock" as an alternate definition. These pack animals were a necessity on the long cattle drives and some borderland cowboys certainly knew the Spanish term.
        Alternate forms: atago, hatajo.

  • 23 bayo naranjado

    ( bayo anaranjado [bájo anaranxáðo]; Spanish bayo [see above] plus anaranjado, Spanish prefix a- plus naranja < Arabic naranya 'orange' plus derivational suffix -do; orange bay)
       A dun horse of an orange hue. Santamaría describes a bayo anaranjado as a dun-colored horse with a white mane and tail.

       1) An outlaw.
       2) A wild cow or horse. The DRAE gives several definitions, among them a rough or indecent person. Cobos indicates that renegado is "said of one who curses as a matter of habit."
