@IriaPoncelaBlanco - I think OP means same meaning, different spellings. — aparente001, Jan 21 '20 at 02:46
In some places they say fríjoles so frijol can also be fríjol — aris, Jan 21 '20 at 03:08
that sounds like a bad misspelling, fríjol, it should be frijol according to spelling rules — Iria, Jan 21 '20 at 08:47

@aparente001 note that "méndigo" does not mean the same as "mendigo" so I have not included it. – Charlie Jan 21 '20 at 05:22
Thanks. // I'm so confused about that pair. I thought the meanings were related. There's a lot of judgment in Mexico. Well, at least what I've heard, is not so much against the person doing the begging, but there's a belief, I don't know if it's true, that there's a family member behind the scenes, sending the infirm person out to the sidewalk to beg, and pocketing the money. – aparente001 Jan 21 '20 at 05:31
