muchachas

Young females, español

Muchachas is Spanish for girls or young women, borrowed into English in regions with Spanish influence.

It appears in casual speech and literature set in Latin American or Southwestern U.S. contexts: The muchachas were laughing on the corner.

Like its masculine counterpart muchachos, it retains a foreign flavor in English usage.
