Does anyone know if "Rancho" is a term used in the same context as we
use it in Mexico in other Spanish speaking countries?. . .I'm mostly
interested in if Central and South Americans call their small
communities Ranchos?



thanks,

Gracias Alicia:
 
Rancho is only one of many words
in Spanish that have been "borrowed" or adopted by the English
language. Here are a few more: Barbeque=Barbacoa, Lariat= La reata,
Lasso= Lazo, Buckaroo= Vaquero, Mustang= Mosteño.  these are just a
few that come to mind...Iam sure there are a lot more.

Rancho:



Un rancho es un asentamiento o lugar donde se establece una persona o

una comunidad.



Rancho: es un lugar fuera de una poblacion donde se albergan varias

personas.



Rancho: Granja donde se crian caballos, vacas y otros animales

domesticos.



Hay ranchos dedicados a la Agricultura y otros a la Ganaderia.



I hope this helps.
