supermercado

Large retail grocery

Supermercado is Spanish for supermarket.

In English contexts, it typically refers to grocery stores in Spanish-speaking neighborhoods or countries: There's a supermercado on the corner that has great produce.

The word appears on storefronts and in casual speech where Spanish and English mix.
