 In other countries it is called simply "idioma de la pe" (Spanish for "P-language") and in Andalucía, "con la pe" (with the P).Most names derive from the Spanish word jerigonza, which can mean either jargon or gibberish.This game, with almost identical rules but using whether the European Portuguese or the Brazilian Portuguese language, is popular with Portuguese and Brazilian children under the name of Língua do Pê (Portuguese for "P-language"), but the word "geringonça" means a complicated, fragile mechanical contraption.
