Etymology

Borrowed from Spanish palo santo.

Pronunciation

This entry needs pronunciation information. If you are familiar with the IPA or enPR then please add some!

Noun

palo santo (plural palo santos)

  1. (US) see the Spanish section

Usage notes

Native English usage, as distinguished from descriptions of local occurrences of Latin America, seems to consist primarily of esoteric circles employing incense sticks, and yerba mate drinkers having their gourds made of wood, so it uses to be not clear with species it refers to, but in this fashion all source language meanings may apply.
