Wouldn't chupacabra make it a feminine word, without an established gender?

Some words are just masculin or feminine, it doesn't reflect upon the specified gender of what they're referring to. Words like casa (house) are feminine, and others like burro (donkey) are masculine, but don't have a specified gender--if you knew you were talking about a female donkey, you might could use burra, I believe, but without a specification, it's generic.

No, it's definately "el" chupacabra. It's a "species" name, and uses the masculine form. Or, it uses the non-gendered one, that is exactly the same as the masculine. Unlike vehicles, which always seem to be refered to as feminine.

Anyways, a species such as a chupacabra is quite reasonably believable. As a matter of fact, in africa, there are giant vampire bats that actually predate upon animals and drink their blood. And no small number of medium-sized cats and predatory rodents are known to do similar things, seemingly without reason.

I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to learn some kind of freaky-looking ratlike chuppa-thingy exists out there. And if there was any place you'd likely find one of them, it'd be South America. We find a new (non insect or plant) species of some sort down there every few years or so. Frog eggs that hatch baby frogs instead of tadpoles. Species of fish who spend their entire lives in pools within giant trees. The electric eel. It's a messed up and scary continent, and we haven't seen half of her mysteries yet.

I thought it was an ork.

o_O It looks like a messed up Hallowe'en mask, but maybe that's just me. Why are those people torturing it? -_- STOP THEM.

I liked the green face better, it was so cute. ;_______; BRING BACK THE GREEN FACE. Plz??? :D Chuchu???? :D?????

Didn't work for me;_;

I hope people actually READ the first post and know that the picture is a fake.

Would someone be so kind as to attach a copy of the image, or something?[q=NAAR]what's an anima[/q]A hideous feminine fish-beast demon with two heads from FFX.

Chewbacca?

I SWEAR there is another word for the Chupacabra. Something with a 'g' in it.

Unclean... so UNCLEAN. :whimper:

I e-mailed my spanish teacher, she said it's el, but it's feminine, just like the wordfor water is el agua, even though it's feminine, el chupacabra is the same thing.

Ah. I appreciate the correction, thanks.

Maybe I should have paid more attention in my three years of Spanish, even past learning how to say "I want to hump your leg"...

(EDIT) However, "chupacabra" is a fun word to say. Kinda like "gaspacho".
