exótico
/eɡˈsotiko/ · B2 · adj
exotic
🦜🌴 exótico = sounds like 'eggs-OT-ic' – eggs from a far-off, outlandish bird
Spanish exótico comes from Greek exōtikos, 'foreign, from outside', built on exō meaning 'outside'. Hear 'eggs-OT-ic' as eggs laid outside your usual world: something from elsewhere, unfamiliar and striking.
