- nymiro 1y agoMy thoughts exactly lol
- mlajtos 1y agoI thought the name was intentional. :)
- anthk 1y agoThe other geometrical meaning :)
- f1shy 1y agoSeems from japan. I often see names from japan to be Spanish words that often are not the best. e.g. verso (can be a poetry verse, but also in some countries a cheap lie), pajero (a car that can drive over hay, but in some countries wanker)
- gus_massa 1y agoAt least here in Argentina you can say "recto" with a straigh face everywhere. And it means straigh or perpendicular. The other meaning of "recto" is used only in medical literature or in mean jokes where you pretend to talk seriously. I worked with teachers of other countries of Latam, sometimes in geometry problems for children. For example, it's usual "ángulo recto". I don't have it in my list of taboo or problematic words. For example a kite-like cuadrilateral has a different names in each country, none in offensive, but you must be very cautios to ensure everyone understand the same meaning. Also, ur kids dont understand am/pm that is usual in other countries. To avoid problems everything must be between 1:01 and 11:59.
