      Hey, they couldn’t sell the Chevy Nova in Spanish-speaking countries either.

        My favorite counter to the myth about ‘Nova’ and ‘no va’ is that in english, you wouldn’t refuse to by a dining room set called “Notable”.

          I never thought about that. Good point.

        That’s apocryphal. Guess what the word for a stellar nova is in Spanish.

          Well TIL. But then I’m guessing they won’t have an issue with ‘Mamala’ in this context either, if they even learn about it.
