Puerto Vallarta is sometimes called P.V. for short due to the difficulty some gringos have with pronouncing the double \"L\" in Vallarta.

buen suedtee

chico...we keep saying Jalisco as it is spelled but it is really like \"halisco\", right? What does that mean in Spanish? Lorianna

The name \"Jalisco\" is derived from the Nahuatl words (the prehispanic language of the Mexica or Aztecs) \"xalli\" - meaning sand or gravel - and \"ixtli\" - meaning face, or by extension, plane. Thus, Jalisco, remarkable for its sandy soil literally means \"sandy plain.\"
