TODAY'S CHAMORRO WORD : PEKAS



PEKAS : freckles, spots, specks, splotches, mildew stains

Borrowed from the Spanish peca, with pretty much the same meanings

Bula pekås-ña i magågo sa' ginen fotgon. The clothes have many mildew stains because they were wet.

Gai pekas matå-ña i Amerikåna. The American lady's face has freckles.

Na' fañuha i pekas gi lemmai.  Take away the spots from the breadfruit.
