Rather than moving into the spanish language forum,
Pata---what? Draw as in fire the weapons? You guys are killing me with slang. I barely have enough spanish to get through the newspaper on a slow news
day.
Please define your use of PATA
Or is it like Skeet's "metache". Mumble mumble sigh I STILL don't see how busybody can mean speaking with a forked tongue.

Unless you have reason to specify a female duck in particular, ducks in general are called patos (as opposed to goats in general which are called
chivas. Then horses in general are caballos and there is no such thing as a caballa. A female horse-i.e.; a mare, is a llegua.) What rule
determines whether the non-gender specific word for the species shall be fem. or masc.? Beats me. That's just the way it is.
Unless you know the context involves a female duck, "pata" usually refers to a paw, hoof, or foot.

Jeez, it was just a joke. In French, when you say canard(duck) no one laughs either
Pato it is
