Here in Tijuana the most common word for turkey, the live bird, seems to be guacalote (huacalote?). I have three Spanish-English dictionaries and this website for reference and find the word in none. Any comments?

 

No es guacalote, sino guajolote. ¿Cuál es la pregunta? Es el nombre que le damos en México. El más común es pavo.

 

Thanks Borgonyon. That's it. I thought I had searched enough at close words but alas, guajalote is in the dictionary. I even asked an old Mexican friend last night and he spelled it incorrectly. Muchisimo gracias. Me sieto much mejor!
