But he's perfectly right. I don't know if he can arrive to that conclusion from his experiment, nevertheless he's right.

Spanish is full of ambiguous words. Just looking around at my desk, I can find...

papel - paper/role

monitor - monitor/supervisor (in Arg, also the student in charge of class materials)

factura - invoice/a kind of pastry (Arg)

caja - box/till/case/drum/soundbox

revista - magazine/review

And let's not start with the verbs...

sonreír - smirk/grin/smile

arrancar - pull out / pull up / pluck / tear out / rip out / blow off / snatch / wrench / start / start a vehicle or machine / boot / set sail...
