  • 4 cholla

    (Sp. model spelled same [t∫ója] 'head' or 'good judgment,' a popular and affective term of uncertain origin, perhaps from antiquated dialectal French cholle 'ball' < Frankish keula 'mace' [weapon])
       California: 1846.
       1) A common cactus, known for its long sharp spines that are so loosely attached to the plant that they seem to jump onto any person or thing that brushes them. Adams notes that the cactus can grow to up to eight feet; he indicates that the branches of the cactus, rather than the spines, are easily detached from the plant and seem to jump onto passersby. The OED defines cholla as one of several species of Opontia cacti. The DARE says that it is the prickly pear cactus. Santamaría glosses cholla as the common name used in northern Mexico for various native cacti of the same genus. He gives O. cholla and O. thurberi as examples. Cobos glosses it as the "buck-horn or cane cactus." Sobarzo describes the plant as a cactus with a vascular, pulpy stalk divided into sections about four inches in length and covered with very sharp spines. Its fruit is like that of the prickly pear, but quite small. It grows to a height of approximately four feet. Sobarzo suggests that the plant gets its name from the shape of its fruit. This variety of cactus is also commonly depicted in western films.
        Alternate form: choya.
        Also called jumping cholla, staghorn cholla, tree cholla, deer brush.
       2) The term also has figurative meanings in the Southwest. Smith notes that it may be a colloquial term for 'skull,' or it may refer to a dull or stupid person. No Spanish source references the latter meaning.

  • 5 nopal

    (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.

  • 9 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.

  • 10 pitahaya

    (Sp. model spelled same [pitája], of Caribbean origin)
       Carlisle: 1848. A generic name for various organ-pipe cacti, especially the Lemaireocereus thurberi (Watts notes that the Mexicans call this plant pitahaya dulce) and the Carnegia gigantea or saguaro, often depicted in illustrations of the Old West and cowboying. Santamaría glosses it as the common name given to several cacti of the genera Cereus, Pachycereus, Lamaireocereus, and others, as well as to the fruit produced by these plants. The cacti are native to tropical regions of the Americas and, similar to the nopal or "prickly pear cactus," grow in prolonged stalks without leaves. Most have three wings and ribs, and the plants are often gigantesque and herbaceous, and are covered with small acicular spines along the ridges of the plant. The spines may be navel-shaped or in small axillary bundles. The flowers of the plant are large and extremely showy. They may be salmon-colored, yellow, or white and generally open only at night and exude a fragrant aroma. They grow on the ends of the stalks, frequently in a tubulated calyx with a corolla formed of wide hanging petals.
