Ok, ok, so it’s spelled Lagartijia, but it sounds like the above. Yep, that’s right, Mozambican Portuguese adopts some Spanish words.
But Rachael found and caught one! In our house! And the girls all LOVED it!
Ciao, lagartijia!
Since then we’ve been on the hunt for lagartijia! When we take our semi-daily walks in the morning (still getting into a routine here), in the backyard… always on the hunt… the prowl…. to catch our next one.
Lagartijia everywhere beware. 😉
