	pollo is the meat, not the animal. should be gallo and gallina. Cabron is a male goat. That should be acceptable too.

	Dodge:	Mar 25th, 2009 at 19:11 GMT	10 points
	Yep, calling a chicken "pollo" is like calling a cow "steak"

	I agree with acceptating cabrón as a goat :P By the way, the use of article in every word is so annoying.

	I only got the horse, because I used to be friends with this Honduran girl who was obsessed with Equestrianism. I should've gotten more. I know all the animals in French (hint hint) and I was trying to take the French word and make it sound Spanish. Guess I failed horribly.

	The only one I knew was conejo, and that wasn't even on here :(

	good quiz, even though i don't know spanish very well. i think this same concept should be done in french :)

	SillyStokey92:	Mar 25th, 2009 at 22:18 GMT	5 points
	I know Perro. LOL, from the Rosette Stone commercial. They should do this in French. I won't fail then.

	Never did Spanish in school so got a big fat zero. How about an Italian one, i might be able to get a perfect score on a language quiz!

	I lived in Argentina for two years, so I knew them all except moose and raccoon. Not very many of those down there.

	This could have worked better the opposite way round... as in converting spanish into english. Gives a chance for those who don't know any spanish at least a guess.

	@ndshroede23: Magnificent! This quiz is very fun, right? - what is wrong with my Spanish, may I ask? I used the correct punctuation, accents, and everything.

	BigSwitz98:	Mar 26th, 2009 at 00:58 GMT	2 points
	Four years of Spanish was good for something!!

	AntieAnnie:	Mar 26th, 2009 at 01:44 GMT	3 points
	Lotsa fun. I totally blanked on cabra. Also blanked on zorro y burro, but I'm a little less bummed about that. I kept putting in cochon for pig?? That's not an alternate? Learned something new with el alce y el mapache!

	14/20. I blanked on horse and pig for some reason. The other four I just didn't know.

	@smartart11: It is a false cognate. Pájaro may sound closest to parrot, but it is indeed the Spanish word for bird. Could there be other regionalisms? Probably, but that's what it means. Parrot, if I recall correctly, is "loro" (amazing how much Spanish I remember when I haven't even had to use it for over 6 years).

	smartart11:	Mar 26th, 2009 at 04:11 GMT	1 point
	sorry...my bad, I forgot, but I thought I remembered learning that as the word for "parrot" in spanish class

	Gallo is Rooster, Gallina is Chicken...

	rockinrobin714:	Mar 26th, 2009 at 22:34 GMT	1 point
	@tank: You used the incorrect word for "is" - there are two ways to use it in Spanish, 'es' and 'está'. The correct form in this case would be 'es'. Also, I don't think 'concurso' would be the correct word for quiz in this case. 'Concurso' means more like competition or game show. Many Spanish speakers actually use the English word 'quiz', or you could use prueba or examen (but this is more like a school quiz).

	I got them all! Pretty good for a mexican huh? I believe the use of the article is annoying, though.

	Dianna:	Mar 27th, 2009 at 14:20 GMT	-1 points
	hey sporcle please change chicken....chicken in spanish is gallina and gallo is actually the rooster...get it right..lol

	estefania:	Mar 28th, 2009 at 04:51 GMT	3 points
	@ Dawn and Kenneth: there is a song: pollito chicken, gallina hen....and so on, so pollo is not only for poultry, it can be the baby chicken.... gallo is rooster; and for those who like the word cabron for goat, cabron can be a curse word (use like when american call someone "the one that likes to have sex with their own mother")... but not in all Spanish speaking countries.

	Thatjuiceman:	Mar 28th, 2009 at 22:48 GMT	1 point
	What about Chiva for goat or Morano for Pig? Or Masacuate for snake

	Zoe Vic:	Apr 3rd, 2009 at 09:42 GMT	1 point
	Tortuga. Reminds me of Pirates and Johnny and Orlando:P

	nrmnbates:	May 29th, 2009 at 09:33 GMT	1 point
	The title of the quiz needs to be changed to male animals because those are the only forms it appears to accept. For example, "gata" means cat, just as much as "gato" does, but it's not an acceptable answer. Either all the female forms need to be added or the title of the quiz needs to be changed.

	redfire389:	Jun 12th, 2009 at 13:15 GMT	0 points
	actually in spanish we call pollo the gallina and the gallo as well, it's a generic term, so for chicken I guess it's acceptable pollo and gallo. Well not gallo maybe, if you say it's rooster, then it would only be acceptable pollo and gallina. and yes asno would be acceptable
