True
A tamale is a Mesoamerican dish made of masa(a corn-based starchy dough), filled with meats, cheeses, fruits, veges and chilies, steamed in a corn husk or banana leaf.
"Hot" is an English word, of course. "Tamale" is the name of a food made by stuffing a corn husk with corn meal and other ingredients, such as shredded pork. In Spanish the singular is "tamal," and the plural is "tamales" (and the "e" is pronounced. When the word was adopted into English we kept the "e' in the singular.
'I don't know what the Tamale Festival is, but hope you have a nice time'
"Tamalona" is a term used in some Latin American cultures to refer to a large tamale or a specific type of tamale that is particularly big or stuffed with various fillings. The word combines "tamal," which is a traditional dish made of masa (corn dough) filled with meats, cheeses, or vegetables, with the suffix "-ona," which often denotes something larger or more significant. The exact meaning can vary by region, but it generally signifies a hearty or oversized version of the classic dish.
Depends on the situation. The literal meaning of "tamale" is well known, it is a type of food very common in many latinoamerican countries. But the figurative meaning may vary. It can be very vulgar: "Hey, do you want to play with my tamale?" Or even grotesque: "That girl has a great tamale, my friend!" So, if you are part of a Spanish group, don't ever say to a girl: "Can I eat your tamale?" -not even in a restaurant.
