Descabellado

 



My Spanish Word of the Day is descabellado. I learned it while listening to the latest Spanish With Vicente video/podcast entitled El mejor ALIÑO del mundo. He tells a funny story about when he was living in England and found it absolutely crazy that people would season their French fries with malt vinegar. As time went on he learned to love it.
