vaca

[Charles Doyle]

Last night on The Daily Show, Claire Danes remarked that she had been enjoying a "vaca" [veke] in Hawaii.  I had never heard that clipping, and it's not recorded in UrbanDictionary.com.  Among lots of Spanish cows, Google yields a limited humber of tokens (search the phrase "vaca in Hawaii" (or some other popular destination).
