Commenter gives a logical answer with information that is probably well-known for a good chunk of the world (Spanish speakers), yet it’s somehow still mind-blowing. Like “whoah, that’s where that came from!”
In Spanish you have one tamal but two tamales. In English you have one tamale, two tamales. We incorrectly removed the pluralization from tamales and now we have this hybrid word, tamale.

The meme is funny nonetheless.
Aaaalso, in Mexico calling a mosquito “mosco” is fair.
Which people also occasionally call “mosco”
Omg, kill it with fire!

‘Mosco’ is commonly used in different Spanish speaking countries. ‘Mosca’ is your regular house fly, ‘Mosco’ is used in some places to refer to the big black flies and horse flies.
Huh, that’s interesting. In russian, the general word for “small fly” is “мошка” (moshka). And plural of those is “мошкара” (moshkara).
Always fun to see related words.
A mosque?

Those buggers live in Scandinavia I think….
They do, and funnily in Finnish, they are called hyttynen while one diminutive is -nen. The question is what the fuck is hytty.
Does that also mean that the capital of Ecuador is really modest?
Sprigatito prepared me well for reading this meme.
