Talk:judía

From Wiktionary, the free dictionary
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Regarding Etymology 2, where "judía" means "bean" in Spain, another possibility is that it is derived from Arabic "yudiya" meaning "bean", but I can't find the source of that info. Neither do I know any Arabic.

Can anyone confirm yudiya?

Yudiyaa has nothing to do with beans. This is anti-semitic propaganda spread by Pearson Publications to explain their incorrect and offensive use of a medieval Spanish term. "Green Jews" in the middle ages were served with "Moros & Cristianos", which were black beans and rice. Judias verdes is offensive to those of us of the Jewish faith. Please use habichuealas or frijoles verdes. Thank you.[edit]
