araguato

== English == === Etymology === From or cognate to French araguate (whence the rare older English spelling araguate), likely from Cariban; compare Kari'na arawata and the other cognates listed at alouatte. The Century Dictionary suggests a possible relation to guariba and/or araba (an obsolete word for a howler monkey of the genus Mycetes). On the other hand, Merriam-Webster attributes it to Cariban. === Noun === araguato (plural araguatos) A South American howler monkey, the ursine howler (Alouatta arctoidea). ==== Translations ==== == Portuguese == === Pronunciation === === Noun === araguato m (plural araguatos) araguato (a South American monkey, Mycetes ursinus) === Further reading === “araguato”, in Dicionário Aulete Digital (in Portuguese), Rio de Janeiro: Lexikon Editora Digital, 2008–2026 “araguato”, in Dicionário Priberam da Língua Portuguesa (in Portuguese), Lisbon: Priberam, 2008–2026 == Spanish == === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /aɾaˈɡwato/ [a.ɾaˈɣ̞wa.t̪o] Rhymes: -ato Syllabification: a‧ra‧gua‧to === Noun === araguato m (plural araguatos) howler monkey === Further reading === “araguato”, in Diccionario de la lengua española [Dictionary of the Spanish Language] (in Spanish), online version 23.8.1, Royal Spanish Academy [Spanish: Real Academia Española], 15 December 2025
