/gua-ya-CAN/
An incredibly hard-wooded tree that lives for hundreds of years without bending. In Colombia, calling someone a guayacán is the highest compliment: you're strong, you endure everything, and nothing breaks you.
"That grandfather is a guayacán, still going strong at ninety."
"Their friendship is guayacán-strong — nothing has ever broken it."
