The most basic translation is SLUT, not necessarily a paid whore or prostitute. It is normally derisive and used to label a "loose" woman, to put it nicely. In some parts of Greece, however, it is now used as an infomal term of address not meant as an insult. Think of the term "player" in the US, except as it applies to a woman. Most, however, would take the word a severe insult equivalent to "malakas" for a man.
The word originated in Greece, but it is now commonly used in Italy, Turkey, and generally the Eastern Mediterranean.

A delectible fruit commonly identified by its sometimes furry outer covering and musky scent. One must be wary of picking out fresh puntangalo- either under ripe or overly seasoned the puntangalo has a very narrow middle ground of perfect freshness. While an in season puntangalo is both delectible and a treasure, out of season puntangalos are considered to be an aquired taste.
The puntangalo's overly musky odor and mussed fur prompted the question "Are these puntangalos fresh?"
