More recently, they have been known for making impromptu appearances at weddings and parties singing traditional Spanish songs, often of a bawdy nature, in exchange for drinks or some money.* * *1) (Bot, Coc) (planta, fruto) prickly pear2) (Mús) tuna ( musical group made up of university students)•• Cultural note:A tuna, also called an estudiantina, is a group of strolling student players.

They wear traditional 17th century costumes and, playing a range of stringed instruments, they accompany wedding ceremonies and first communions. They still serenade young women under their windows. The first tunas date back to the 13th century, when hard-up students sang in taverns for a meal and a glance from their sweethearts. There are tunas all over Spain, and they are also found in Latin America (where they are more often known by the more general term “estudiantina”).* * *f2 Méxfruta prickly pearm, tuna f rogue* * *tuna nf: prickly pear (fruit) -

(Sp. model spelled same [nopál] < Nahuatl nopalli < nochtli 'prickly pear' and palli 'flattened object')Colorado: 1823. A prickly pear cactus; also the flat section or leaf ( penca) of such a cactus. Santamaría glosses it as the common name of several cacti that produce a prickly pear, especially Opuntia cactus and O. hernandezii, a plant that grows to about ten feet in height and has flattened stalks composed of a series of fleshy, oval-shaped sections covered with spines. The cactus also produces yellow flowers with many petals and spiny, edible fruits that are green when unripe and turn yellow or cherry-colored when they mature. -
