Bandera de Guatemala

/PLAS-te/

A thick corn tortilla, bigger than the usual kind. In Guatemala, the plaste is the countryside breakfast — large and filling enough to fuel a full day of work.

Example

"I ate two plastes with beans and wasn't hungry until the afternoon."

"Grandma's plastes are enormous — one fills you up for the whole day."

Regional synonyms:

Bailar de manera sensual y provocativa al ritmo del reggaetón, o tener una actitud desinhibida y atrevida. Es la acción de dejarse llevar por el bellaqueo.
