mazacote.
(Del it. marzacotto, este del ár. masḥaqūniyā, y este del siriaco mšaḥ qūnyā, literalmente, 'ungüento de sosa'; cf. port. massicote).
1. m. hormigón (‖ mezcla de piedras y mortero).
2. m. Objeto de arte no bien concluido y en el cual se ha procurado más la solidez que la elegancia.
3. m. Cenizas de la planta llamada barrilla.
4. m. coloq. Guisado u otra vianda o cosa de masa, seca, dura y pegajosa.
5. m. coloq. Persona molesta y pesada.
6. m. Arg., Bol., Par., Ur. y Ven. Masa espesa y pegajosa.
